Prescribing Information
What should I avoid while taking Carboplatin Injection?
If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, or if you are breast feeding, let your doctor know right away. Carboplatin Injection may harm your developing fetus or breast-feeding baby. If you are a woman of childbearing age, you should use birth control to avoid getting pregnant while you are taking Carboplatin Injection.
You should avoid contact with adults and children who have infections, and tell your doctor right away if you show signs of infection such as cough, fever, and/or chills.
Also, while you are being treated with Carboplatin Injection or after you stop treatment, first check with your doctor before getting any immunizations (vaccinations). Avoid contact with adults or children who have received oral polio vaccine since they can pass the polio virus to you.
