Is hair loss caused due to Norbita permanent?

Do elderly patients need to be more careful while taking Norbita?
Older adults (over age 65 years) tend to experience more side effects when taking Norbita. The reason being, their kidneys do not flush the drug out of their system as quickly as a younger person’s kidneys would do. Elderly patients should drink plenty of water while taking Norbita, and their kidney function should be monitored. These patients should be given a lower dose and should be monitored for neurological problems.
What are the serious side effects of Norbita?
Serious side effects are rare, but if you experience them, you should seek medical advice right away. These rare side effects include hives, blistering or peeling rash, yellow skin or eyes, unusual bruising or bleeding, loss of consciousness, fits, difficulty in breathing, hallucinations and swelling of the face, tongue, lips or throat.
Does Norbita prevent transmission of infection to others?
No, you can infect other people, even while you are being treated with Norbita. Herpes infections are contagious, so avoid letting infected areas come into contact with other people. Avoid touching your eyes after touching an infected area. Wash your hands frequently to prevent transmitting the infection to others. You should practice safe sex by using condoms. You should not have sex if you have genital sores or blisters.
