mebendazole and Neutropenia

mebendazole has been researched along with Neutropenia in 5 studies

Mebendazole: A benzimidazole that acts by interfering with CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM and inhibiting polymerization of MICROTUBULES.
mebendazole : A carbamate ester that is methyl 1H-benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate substituted by a benzoyl group at position 5.

Neutropenia: A decrease in the number of NEUTROPHILS found in the blood.
