- Cardiotoxicity: There is a dose-dependent risk of developing cardiac dysfunction, including congestive heart failure. Regular monitoring of cardiac function (e.g., ECHO, MUGA scans) is crucial.
- Myelosuppression: May cause severe bone marrow suppression, leading to significant reductions in white blood cells (leukopenia), red blood cells (anemia), and platelets (thrombocytopenia).
- Extravasation Risk: If the solution leaks from the vein during infusion, it can cause severe local tissue necrosis and blistering. Immediate action is required if extravasation is suspected.
- Secondary Malignancies: Patients treated with epirubicin may have an increased risk of developing secondary leukemias.
- Pregnancy and Lactation: Epirubicin is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to its genotoxic and teratogenic potential. Effective contraception must be used by both male and female patients during and after treatment.
- Liver and Kidney Impairment: Dosage adjustments are necessary for patients with hepatic or renal dysfunction.
- Drug Interactions: Inform your physician of all other medications, including over-the-counter drugs, herbal supplements, and vitamins, as interactions may occur.
- Immunosuppression: Avoid live vaccines during treatment due to immunosuppression.
