Thrombocytopenia associated with sodium valproate treatment.

Abstract

The administration of sodium valproate to 30 patients in daily doses of 1,200 to 3,000 mg was associated with a significant reduction of the platelet count. Thrombocytopenia without any concomitant bleeding abnormalities occurred in 10 of the patients. Platelet counts returned to baseline levels after withdrawal of the drug.
