Guest guest Posted July 14, 2001 Report Share Posted July 14, 2001 Hi : I think the Imuran does do that. I know white blood cells are the ones that attack infection and help our immune system and that Imuran is used to supress our bodies own attack on our system, so it would make sense to me that this would be a side effect of the med. I know people on Imuran, meth etc have depressed immune systems, so that means white cell count must drop too. Don't know at what levels it becomes dangerous though. Does anyone know?
