Severe neutropenia has occurred in up to 2% of patients administered mycophenolate. Therapy with mycophenolate should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to neutropenia. Mycophenolate should be discontinued or the dose reduced in patients who develop neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count <1300/mm3). Clinical monitoring of hematopoietic function is recommended. Complete blood counts should be performed weekly during the first month, two times a month during the second and third months, and monthly for the remainder of the first year of treatment.
