Leucovorin Calcium is also used as a rescue drug after high-dose methotrexate therapy in osteosarcoma, in the treatment of
megaloblastic anemia due to folic acid deficiency when oral therapy is not feasible, and in combination with 5-fluorouracil to prolong survival in the palliative treatment of patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
It has been found that incidence of

Heavy metal poisoning, haemoglobinopathies, severe infections, sideroblastic anaemia,
megaloblastic anaemia.
KHAPZORY is not indicated for the treatment of pernicious anemia and

Iron deficiency, haemolytic and
megaloblastic anaemia occur in diabetes through various mechanisms.
Hyperhomocysteinemia May occur isolated, but is also a feature of inherited metabolic disorders, including homocystinuria, due to mutation in the CBS gene, and N(5,10)-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency, caused by mutation in the MTHFR gene (607093); homocysteinemia/ homocystinuria and
megaloblastic anemia can result from defects in vitamin B12 (cobalamin; cbl) metabolism.
Deficiency of these vitamins leads to
megaloblastic anemia due to ineffective erythropoiesis.
Cheilitis may also be associated with numerous conditions or diseases, e.g., nutritional deficiencies, such as
megaloblastic anemia due to vitamin B deficiency, anemia due to iron deficiency, oral candidiasis, diabetes (2,4-8).
Myelodysplastic morphology of blood cells can be encountered not only in myelodysplastic syndromes but also can be seen in non-clonal disorders, cause of which can be pointed to viral, bacterial, parasitic infections, autoimmune disorders, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, iron deficiency anemia,
megaloblastic anemia, dysgranulopietic neutropenia, congenital neutropenia, malignant lymphoma, after administration of granulocyte colony stimulating factor, chemotherapy, steroids, smoking, alcohol, posttransplantation, copper deficiency also, together with or without cytopenia.

(5, 9, 11, 12, 13) Folic acid is also important in the third trimester to help prevent
