Do not use aminoglycosides or furosemide in a patient who recently received cisplatin unless there is no alternative.

F) Cytarabine (Ara-C)

Pyrimidine analog; acts as “false base” for DNA. Myelosuppression and neurotoxicity are dose-limiting. Conjunctivitis must be prevented with isotears or similar ophthalmic drops every 2 hours while awake, during and x 12 hr after infusions of  1 g/m2. Cytarabine may cause fever during and up to 36 hours after the infusion. Rashes, including severe skin desquamation may occur. Maintenance hydration is adequate during high-dose Ara-C. Emesis can be moderate at high-doses.
