Cytarabine (pronounced sigh-tare-a-been) is a chemotherapy drug that is given as a treatment for some types of cancer. It is sometimes called Ara C. Cytarabine is most commonly used to treat a type of leukaemia known as acute myeloid leukaemia. This information describes cytarabine, how it is given and some of its possible side effects. It should ideally be read with our general information about chemotherapy and about acute myeloid leukaemia, which give more information and advice.

Appearence: Cytarabine is a colourless fluid after being dissolved from powder.
