While it is effective, it is essential to be aware of potential side effects, including gastrointestinal issues and the risk of infection due to its impact on blood cell counts. For optimal results, healthcare providers will determine the most suitable treatment plan, which may involve using Intensic alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents. Patients are encouraged to discuss their complete medical history with their healthcare provider to ensure safe usage. As with any cancer treatment, regular monitoring and follow-up appointments are crucial to assess the medication's effectiveness and manage any adverse effects.
