When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of pegaspargase is contraindicated in patients who developed significant bleeding with previous L-asparaginase therapy. Pegaspargase interferes with coagulation factors, and both thrombosis and hemorrhage have been observed. Therapy with pegaspargase should be administered with extreme caution to patients with or predisposed to coagulopathies. Patients should be instructed to immediately report any signs or symptoms of thrombosis or bleeding. Close clinical monitoring of hematopoetic function and coagulation profiles is recommended.
