Taxotere Lawsuit

Free Consultations with Our Denver Defective Drugs Attorneys

Since 1999, Taxotere has been used in the U.S. to treat patients with advanced or metastasized breast cancer, and other cancers. The drug is manufactured by Sanofi-Aventis and is believed to increase the risk of alopecia, or loss of all body hair, among users. Many breast cancer patients allege that Taxotere has caused permanent hair loss and that the manufacturer did not fully disclose this side effect.

Symptoms of Taxotere-Induced Alopecia Universalis

While many cancer treatments cause hair to fall out, it has been claimed that Taxotere causes hair to fall out permanently.

Symptoms of alopecia universalis include:

  • Permanent baldness
  • No eyebrows
  • No eyelashes
  • Lack of hair anywhere on body

Additional side effects from the use of Taxotere include: bone / muscle/ joint pain, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, low red blood cell count (anemia), low white blood cell count, fatigue / weakness, mouth and throat sores, fluid retention / weight gain / swelling in ankles and abdominal area, taste changes, nail color changes, peripheral neuropathy (numbness in fingers and toes), and / or infection. In serious cases, death, heart issues, and nerve damage can result.

A physician can help you determine if your hair loss is directly related to a drug and not to another illness or cause. Read more about Taxotere on the FDA’s website here.

    "Stephen Wahlberg went above and beyond in their empathetic approach."

    Stephen Wahlberg recently helped my family and me in a wrongful death case, which we filed on behalf of my mother. I’ll never forget the day of - it was surreal. Having been through these situations many times before in his career, Steve came to our side and had his staff on the scene immediately. He was highly recommended by trusted friends, and his presence offered a breath of fresh air. It was a relief in many ways, to know that he would "take care of it.” I highly recommend him to anyone who may be considering his services. I am grateful we were gifted with an incredible human being AND brilliant/talented/experienced/well-connected lawyer to support us through the legal process. Thanks again, Steve and team!

    "We are incredibly grateful to Jordan Grosgebauer and the entire team at Denver Trial Lawyers."
    After the devastating loss of our son due to medical malpractice, we felt lost, heartbroken, and unsure where to turn. Jordan was the only attorney who not only took the time to truly listen to us, but also believed in our case when others wouldn’t. Throughout the entire process, Jordan was patient, compassionate, and always available to answer our questions. She helped guide us through one of the most painful times in our lives with empathy and professionalism. Thanks to Jordan and her team's dedication and expertise, we were able to find a sense of justice for our son. We can’t thank Jordan and her team enough for their unwavering support and commitment. They brought us a measure of peace during an otherwise unimaginable time, and we will always be grateful.
