    Author: Hussain MZ, Khan AG, Chaudhry ZA.
    Journal: Can Med Assoc J; 1973 Mar 17; 108(6):724-5 passim. PubMed ID: 4691107.
    Abstract:
    A case is reported of fatal aplastic anemia developing in a 50-year-old woman who received lithium carbonate in the generally accepted dosage for a manic-depressive disorder. The serum lithium had been determined at regular intervals and never exceeded what is considered a safe level. Patients for whom lithium is prescribed should have periodic hematologic examinations.
