While it may not always be possible to prevent cytopenias, certain measures can reduce the risk:
Prophylactic Medications: Use of growth factors or prophylactic antibiotics in high-risk patients can mitigate the effects of cytopenias. Nutritional Support: Ensuring adequate intake of essential nutrients can help maintain blood cell production. Regular Monitoring: Frequent blood tests can detect cytopenias early, allowing for timely intervention. Dose Adjustments: Modifying chemotherapy or radiation doses to minimize bone marrow suppression.
