Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring of Anticancer Drugs in Hematology Department
Background: Cancer is among the leading causes of mortality in India. Studies have reported antineoplastic agents as the common class of drugs causing Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs). The present study aimed to conduct active surveillance of ADRs of anticancer drugs in the hematology department. Meth...
