  In addition, more incidences of grade 3 or 4 anemia, thrombocytopenia, and neurotoxicity were observed in the doublet combination group. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  If proper precautions are not observed thiotepa may cause leukopenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia. [rxmed.com]

  Cytoxan can also cause bone marrow suppression, resulting in low red and/or white blood cell counts ( anemia, leukopenia) and low platelets (thrombocytopenia), which can raise the risk of bleeding and infection (especially shingles ). [verywell.com]

• Arm Pain

  Dose-limiting toxicity took the form of infusional arm pain, in some cases associated with facial discomfort, that was of rapid onset and subsided quickly on the cessation of infusion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Sore Mouth

  This may lead to a sore mouth, a dry mouth or other mouth problems. Routine good mouth care will help to prevent mouth problems from developing or from becoming more serious. [patient.info]
