Transient erythroid hypoplasia in a patient on long-term co-trimoxazole therapy
Abstract
The occurrence of isolated erythroid hypoplasia in a patient on long-term treatment with co-trimoxazole is described. It is suggested that this haematological complication, which has not been previously reported, was due to hypersensitivity to the sulphonamide component.
