Holoxan may cause side effects such as low blood cells, bladder irritation, hair loss, and fatigue. Therefore, it is essential to drink plenty of water and use auxiliary medications to protect the bladder. The drug should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The doctor should be informed of all other medications being taken to avoid interactions and complications.
