Consumer:

The use of carboplatin is contraindicated in patients with significant bleeding. Carboplatin causes severe myelosuppression and dose-dependent thrombocytopenia. Patients should be instructed to immediately report any signs or symptoms suggesting bleeding such as petechiae, purpura, epistaxis, hemoptysis, hematuria, and melena. Close clinical monitoring of hematopoietic function is recommended.
