Neutropenia Absolute

Absolute neutropenia is a condition in which the number of neutrophils in the blood is significantly reduced. This can be caused by various reasons such as infections, autoimmune diseases, chemotherapy or radiation.

Neutropenia causes decreased immunity and an increased risk of infections such as bacterial, fungal and viral. It can also cause anemia and thrombocytopenia, which reduces the body's ability to fight infections and can lead to serious complications.

Treatment of neutropenia depends on the cause of its occurrence. In most cases, it is treated with special medications that increase the level of neutrophils. Patients are also advised to take antibiotics to prevent infections.

However, absolute neutropenia can have significant side effects such as headache, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain due to medications. Therefore, treatment should be carried out under the supervision of a doctor and with strict adherence to the dosage.

Another factor influencing treatment is monitoring neutrophil levels - this requires regular blood tests. If neutrophil levels do not recover, more aggressive treatment may be required, including blood transfusions.

In addition, patients with neutropenia are also advised to avoid contact with other people and follow all safety measures, including the use of personal hygiene products and masks in public places.
