[Neutropenia in epilepsy patients].
Blood neutrophils were studied in epileptic patients. Differentiation of neutropenia induced by epilepsy from neutropenia due to anticonvulsants enabled one to reveal that incidence of the latter amounts to 6%. Differentiation of drug-induced neutropenia (54 observations) depending on the pathogenetic mechanism or origin (tonic and allergic), features of the blood picture and the nature of the disease course (stable, recurrent, transitory) is of special importance for diagnosis and choice of therapeutic tactics.
