Anemia is a blood disorder which occurs when the number of red blood cells (RBCs) that carry oxygen is lower than usual. As a result, your tissues and organs don’t get adequate oxygen. Megaloblastic anemia is a form of anemia characterized by very large red blood cells and a decrease in their number. Generally, megaloblastic anemia is due to vitamin B12 or folic acid deficiency.

Adult’s urine output should be maintained above 2,500 mL/24hr by increasing oral or intravenous fluids 12 hours before and for 36 hours after the end of methotrexate infusion. Monitor alkalinization of urine (this enhances drug excretion) so that the urinary pH is greater than 7.0 before methotrexate infusion. Drinks, foods and drugs that may increase urinary acidity should be avoided during the therapy. Finally, blood methotrexate concentration should be measured at least 24, 48, and 72 hours after starting the methotrexate infusion.
