Our goal for continuing to update our database is to provide an accessible resource (moon.ouhsc.edu/jgeorge) for all reports of drug-induced thrombocytopenia, describing the level of evidence for a causal role for each drug as well as clinical outcomes (1). This letter describes our continuing systematic review for the period from 2 August 2002 to 14 August 2004.We reviewed both individual-patient data and group data presented in case series and clinical trials to assess the probability of drug-induced thrombocytopenia.
