One type of chemo is called Taxotere, also known as Docetaxol. It’s used in both early-stage and advanced breast cancer and it’s given via an injection.

The drug stops cancer cells from reproducing, but unfortunately, it also leaves some cancer patients with a horrible side effect—permanent baldness. If you’ve suffered on Taxotere, you might want to learn about current Taxotere lawsuits—keep reading to find out more.

How Do I Know If I’m Eligible?

If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer and have taken chemotherapy drugs, double-check your medical records to see if you were given Taxotere. If you have, then you may be eligible to get involved.

People who had been given Taxotere are sometimes left with permanent hair loss, so if you’ve experienced that, you should be eligible for compensation.

What’s Wrong With Taxotere?

It’s a known fact that chemotherapy treatments often result in hair loss. However, this isn’t permanent—in cancer patients, their hair grows back normally after they finish their course of treatment.

However, in the case of Taxotere, patients were left with permanent hair loss as a result of their treatment. This caused them emotional pain, anxiety, and sadness, as no one expects to be left bald after recovering from cancer—especially women.

The lawsuit alleges that the drug’s manufacturers knew that Taxotere could cause permanent baldness, but didn’t let anyone know. By falsely marketing their product, thousands of cancer patients were left with permanent hair loss.

If you want to find out more about the ongoing lawsuits, read more here. The ongoing lawsuits are working to get compensation for patients and to push drug companies to become more transparent about the side effects of their products.

Is Taxotere Still Being Used?

With such a serious side effect, you might imagine that Taxotere has gone away. However, that’s not the case—it’s still used for cancer treatment and can also be found in a generic version.

Women are now warned in advance of the potential risks of Taxotere, so they can decide if it’s right for them. Not all cancer patients who take Taxotere have permanent hair loss, but some do.

Contact a Lawyer to Learn About Getting Involved With Taxotere Lawsuits

If you or a loved one had a bad experience during chemotherapy, you might be eligible to help with the Taxotere lawsuits.

The best way to get started is by looking for an experienced law firm working on the case. Or, ask your medical team if they’re aware of any class-action lawsuits that they may know of.

Then, the law firm will have a consultation with you, learning more about your side effects and medical history. If you qualify, you’re likely to receive a settlement. This can bring comfort and help make life a little easier, so reach out today.
