Entyvio and hair loss

My daughter has Crohn’s disease and after a long time with a long list of drugs, she is starting Remicade infusions. I think this is her last biologic. When she took the Entyvio, all of her hair fell out. From what I have read, it is one of the side effects of Remicade. I am interested in knowing what experiences people have had taking this biologic. Is hair loss a definite side effect?

I am on Entyvio infusions and experiencing hair loss. I attributed my hair loss due to age, did not know it was a side affect of Entyvio. What a shame, my hair has always been my crowning glory, very long and I wear in a braid. The infusions have helped me reclaim a normal life. I guess I will have to give up my hair to feel good.

Thanks for sharing this valuable post. Hope your daughter feeling better today. I also have same case (using Entyvio causes hair lose). So could you tell about the names of vitamin and conditioner that they help to improve her hair to grow back. Thanks again.
