- Title

- Authors
Satos, T.; Takeich, M.; Takami, T.
- Abstract
Cases of blood dyscrasia related to neuroleptic therapy have been reported. However thrombocytopenia associated with levomepromazine (LPZ) has never been reported, to the best of our knowledge. We describe here a patient treated with LPZ who has developed haemorrhagic vesicles and severe thrombocytopenia. Appropriate management and prompt substitution of LPZ by sulpiride led to a full clinical recovery.
