Close clinical and laboratory observation for bleeding complications is recommended during therapy. A complete blood count (CBC) with differential and platelet count should be obtained prior to and at least weekly for the first 2 months, then monthly thereafter or as clinically indicated. Patients should be advised to promptly report any signs of bleeding to their physician, including pain, swelling, headache, dizziness, weakness, prolonged bleeding from cuts, increased menstrual flow, vaginal bleeding, nosebleeds, bleeding of gums from brushing, unusual bleeding or bruising, red or brown urine, or red or black stools.
