Low blood cell counts. Low blood counts (white blood cells, platelets, and red blood cells) are common with INQOVI but can also be serious and lead to infections that may be life-threatening. If your blood cell counts are too low, your healthcare provider may need to delay treatment with INQOVI, lower your dose of INQOVI, or in some cases give you a medicine to help treat low blood cell counts. Your healthcare provider may need to give you antibiotic medicines to prevent or treat infections or fever while your blood cell counts are low. Your healthcare provider will check your blood cell counts before you start treatment and regularly during treatment with INQOVI.
