You may be more likely to develop anemia, bleeding problems, or infections due to low blood cell counts. Consult with your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

MANAGEMENT: It is advisable to monitor patients for neutropenia and thrombocytopenia during coadministration.
