A member asked:
I used diprosalic cream on scalp once in a day, for 7 days and then triderm for 4 days to treat scalp psoriasis. could this cause alopecia or hair loss?

No, neither will cause hair loss -- but if you have scalp psoriasis, there are much better treatments available. See a dermatologist for a more appropriate treatment regimen.
