A member asked:
All my blood counts are very very low could interferon be the cause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Inteferon causes low blood counts, specifically the white count. When someone is on that medication, the CBC should be monitored and the drug dose adjusted if needed. Need to be sure no other causes but notorious to do this. Hope this helps.
