> This is the aspect that I am attempting to explain, in that Clozaril caused agranulocytosis and then the whole class of those type of drugs is suspect.
> Now I have shown a report where one took saphris and got agranulocytosis. I did intend to show the chemical structure of saphris and let people make up their own mind if the drug could cause a blood disease, be it neutropenia or agranulocytosis. The point here is that death is possible from taking saphris and I was going to post the FDA synopsis of the deaths in the trials.
> Here is the link to the post here that I posted a link where one got agranulocytosis, and one person getting it does show that it is possible and as time runs, we could see if other reports substantiate that it can happen. The drug is newer on the market so there has not been a great amount of time for reports to be cataloged. I want to post this information here that is factual concerning that there is a case of agranulocytosis from taking saphris and that neutropenia is listed in the PI as a possibility. As to if the one will be more evident going forward, there is still neutropenia listed now.
> Here is the link to the post here that has the link to the report of a person with agranulocytosis while taking saphris. If one could get agranulocytosis, that is a warning as I see it for those that are considering taking the drug.

Here is a warning from the FDA that I think if one considering taking the drug could read it, their life could be saved if they knew this information and had the situation arise to them.
The reaction from saphris could cause death.
