| A case of thrombocytopenia caused by ziprasidone is reported in this paper, so as to arouse clinical concerns on this adverse reaction. A 29-year-old female schizophrenic patient, who had no medical or family history of thrombocytopenia and normal platelet level before medication, developed ecchymosis on the skin of abdomen and upper limbs after treatment for 9 days, which gradually worsened and extended to the skin of buttocks and lower limbs. Examination showed that the patient's platelet decreased to 1×109/L. Ziprasidone was discontinued clinically, and the treatments of platelet infusion combined with caffeic acid tablets were applied. Then the platelets level gradually recovered, and the skin returned to normal 8 days later. These results indicate thrombocytopenia is caused by ziprasidone. |
