Which drug's toxicity includes Hemorrhagic cystitis?

Cisplatin
Irinotecan
Ifosfamide
Flutamide

The correct answer is: Ifosfamide

Cisplatin, Irinotecan, and Flutamide are all well-known drugs that can cause severe side effects like nausea, vomiting, and hair loss. However, Cisplatin and Irinotecan are not known to cause hemorrhagic cystitis, a condition where there is bleeding in the bladder lining. This side effect is more commonly associated with Ifosfamide, a chemotherapy drug used to treat various types of cancer. Flutamide, a hormonal therapy used to treat prostate cancer, does not cause hemorrhagic cystitis either. Therefore, Cisplatin, Irinotecan, and Flutamide are incorrect options as they do not have this known toxicity.
