• Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water and clear fluids to help flush the medicine through your kidneys and prevent dehydration from nausea.
• Eat small, frequent meals: If you experience nausea, eating smaller portions throughout the day rather than three large meals can help keep your stomach settled.
• Choose soft, bland foods: To manage or prevent painful mouth sores, avoid spicy, acidic, or crunchy foods, and opt for soft, easy-to-chew options instead.
• Practice strict food safety: Because your immune system may be weakened, avoid raw or undercooked meats, eggs, and seafood, and wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly.
• Protect your skin from the sun: This treatment can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, so wear protective clothing and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen when outdoors.

• Monitor the injection site: Tell your nurse or doctor immediately if you feel any burning, stinging, or pain while the injection is being given, as this can indicate the medicine is leaking outside the vein.
• Keep all blood test appointments: Regular blood tests are required to monitor your blood cells and ensure it is safe for you to receive your next dose.
• Watch your heart health: Report any heart palpitations, rapid heartbeats, or sudden ankle swelling to your doctor right away, as this medicine can affect your heart muscles.
• Avoid live vaccines: Do not receive any live vaccines while undergoing treatment, as your weakened immune system may not be able to handle them safely.
• Avoid crowds and sick people: Because your white blood cell count may drop, take precautions to avoid catching infections from others.
• Expect urine colour changes: Do not be alarmed if your urine turns a reddish or pinkish colour for a day or two after your injection; this is a harmless effect of the medicine's natural colour.
