Kant, Surya; Verma, Sanjay Kumar; Gupta, Vaibhav; Anand, Sunish C. & Prasad, Rajendra
Abstract
Thrombocytopenia is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening complication of certain antitubercular drugs and is characterized by rapid destruction of platelets whenever offending drug is taken by a susceptible person. We report a case of pyrazinamide-induced thrombocytopenia in a patient receiving anti tubercular drugs.
