Abstrakt: Thrombocytopenia, a fairly uncommon side effect of phenothiazine treatment, usually appears in the presence of a concommitant leukopenia. The authors report 1 patient in whom the illness appeared in the presence of a long known Beta thalassemia but without evidence of alteration in myeloid or lymphoid series. Platelet changes were seen in the presence of a butyrophenone and an aliphatic phenothiazine. A piperazine derivative was used without difficulty.
