Re: Any info about Tykerb + Capecitibine (Zeloda)???
I have not been on that combo, but have been on tykerb.
Neither of these drugs cause hair loss.
Tykerb can cause a lot of digestive issues, especially diarrhea . You can play around with taking the dose at different times of the day to see if that helps. I took it in the evening which seemed to help a little.
Some women will do a dose reduction, if the side effects are too bad.
