I am a member of this forum from past 2 years.currently i am taking 8o0mg of glivec. I had lot of side effects. currently lot of black hairs become white.i consult with my doctor. he told that it was due to tension. but i didnt feel like that. any body have this problem.plz give me a solution for my problem.

don't want to appear rude, but are you sure that this is not natural ageing?

Hi all

My hair has not gone white - pepper and salt - thank god for hair dressers - now is blonde, red, brown, and gold colourings.
Now that is ageing!!

However my hair has thickened considerably in the last few months - and it is not the haircut - I do not know the reason for this mayve a glivec impact

My son Edward is 8 1/2 years old and has been on Gleevec since he was 22 months old. He has developed quite a few white hairs over the years which we have always attributed to the Gleevec. So I think you're probably right that it's a side effect.

I am 25 years old,and i had black hair during past 2 years taking Glivec 400mg and 600mg regularly.From last two weeks onwards suddenly my hairs change to white.After taking 800 mg only this will happen.
