“…Like other IDRs targeting blood and bone marrow, the time to onset of idiosyncratic drug-induced agranulocytosis (IDIAG) is usually delayed, typically between 1 and 3 months . It can present clinically as septicemia, septic shock, and/or severe infection; however, often patients may remain relatively asymptomatic, highlighting the need for routine monitoring of neutrophil counts for high-risk drugs (Palmblad et al, 2016;Andrès et al, 2019). Drugs frequently associated with this IDR include antibiotics (e.g., cotrimoxazole and amoxicillin 6 clavulanic acid), antithyroid drugs (e.g., carbimazole), psychotropics (e.g., clozapine and carbamazepine), antiviral agents (e.g., valganciclovir), antiaggregants (e.g., ticlopidine), analgesics (e.g., metamizole), disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (e.g., sulfasalazine), and immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., nivolumab and ipilimumab) Boegeholz et al, 2020).…”
