Standing Up for Those Who Cannot Stand Up for Themselves
Chemotherapy patients who experience hair loss can typically expect to have it grow back within 3-6 months after treatment is complete, but breast cancer survivors have reported permanent hair loss in increasing numbers since the mid-2000s. Taxane chemotherapy drugs, such as Taxotere®, have been linked to this permanent hair loss.
An Annals of Oncology study suggested that taxane chemotherapy drugs “seem to be responsible” for severe and permanent female hair loss.The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Taxotere® drug label update in December of 2015 warning doctors and patients of the possibility of permanent alopecia.
