  • Title: Leukopenia in clozapine treated patients may be induced by other drugs: a case series.
    Author: Imbarlina MJ, Sarkar S, Marwah S, Parepally H, Johnston PR, Brar JS, Chengappa KN.
    Journal: Eur Psychiatry; 2004 Dec; 19(8):506-9. PubMed ID: 15589712.
    Abstract:
    The combination of clozapine and other potentially leukopenic drugs may pose a greater risk for neutropenia. However, neutropenia may not always be due to clozapine. When adding potentially leukopenic drugs, clinicians should look for possible alternatives especially as clozapine is often a drug used as the last resort in treatment refractory schizophrenia.
