In reply to meds and white blood cell count, posted by cellocarly on May 16, 2001, at 20:51:35
1) Clozaril (novel antipsychotic) -- can affect red cells, white cells, and platelets (agranulocytosis) -- blood samples are followed very closely
2) Depakote (mood stabilizer) -- can lower platelets (thrombocytopenia) -- blood samples followed periodically
3) Remeron (antidepressant) -- very rarely can cause same as Clozaril -- blood usually not followed
4) Tegretol (mood stabilizer) -- aplastic anemia (same as Clozaril) -- blood followed closely
These were all I could find on a quick look. Almost all go away once the drug is stopped.
