Recommended Action
Management		Caution is advised if denosumab must be used in combination with immuno- or myelosuppressive agents. Patients should be advised to contact their physician if they develop signs and symptoms of infection such as fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, and pain or burning during urination.
