Chemotherapy-related anemia

Anemia is a condition caused by a low level of healthy red blood cells (RBCs).1 Cancer or cancer treatment (such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy) can affect the bone marrow so that it doesn’t make enough healthy red blood cells.1

Anemia can cause a variety of symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath.1
