Disclaimer
As new scientific information becomes available, recommendations regarding treatments and drug therapies change. The Association of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Nurses (APHON) has sought to make these medication fact sheets as accurate and up-to-date as possible. However, the information in them was extracted from manufacturers’ guidelines and does not include recommendations of specific protocols or institutional practices. APHON does not endorse any of the hematology or oncology treatments discussed in these medication fact sheets. Readers are advised always to check product information and package inserts for new information regarding the medications and their administration, and any practice described in the sheets should be applied by the healthcare provider in accordance with professional standards of care in light of the unique circumstances of each patient’s situation. For this reason, it is appropriate to individualize a fact sheet using the “Notes from Your Healthcare Team” section before distributing it to patients and families.
