Medication should be planned, the dosage should not be too large, the types should not be too many, the time should not be too long, and regular observation should be required, especially when using drugs with certain toxicity, such as immunosuppressants, anti-cancer drugs, etc., close observation should be made, and blood counts should be checked regularly.
