“…In an otherwise healthy pediatric patient, neutropenia can be the result of viral infection and subsequent suppression of neutrophil production, which is usually benign, resulting in mild or moderate neutropenia, and transient, resolving within 1 month. 38 Transient neutropenia can also be the result of medications, such as analgesics and antiinflammatory agents, antibiotics, anticonvulsants, antidepressants and antipsychotics, antithyroid, and cardiac medications, and resolves after discontinuation of inciting medication. 39 Chronic neutropenia is defined as lasting longer than 2 months and can have multiple causes including autoimmune and alloimmune neutropenia, chronic idiopathic neutropenia, cyclic neutropenia, severe congenital neutropenia, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, and bone marrow failure syndromes, such as aplastic anemia and Fanconi anemia.…”
