Hi Doc.
Can the usage of Xolair an expensive asthma injectible cause hair loss. I have read warnings that this is possible. I may be taking this medicine in the near future and wondered if you have any thoughts on this issue with this medicine. It appears that most people take this med for multi years.
Thanks
Yes, Xolair (omalizumab) has been reported to produce hair loss in some patients. I don’t have anything else to add, as I don’t use nor do I prescribe this medication (I do not treat patients for asthma ailments). Sorry.
