Docetaxel (Taxotere Â®) Docetaxel is a chemotherapy drug used to treat cancers including breast, prostate, non-small cell lung cancer, stomach and head and neck cancers. This information should ideally be read with our general information about chemotherapy and the type of cancer you have.
In studies, Taxotere performed better than other drugs in extending survival of breast cancer patients. However, the drug may also have a distressing side effect for breast cancer survivors: permanent hair loss, also called alopecia. In women, the side effect is particularly disfiguring.
