Side effects of ciclosporin

[jimh]

I am being treated with ciclosporin for Heamolytic Anaemia taking 25mg morning and evening. My Haemoglobin is steady at 127 but my LDH is up and my reticulocytes are also raised. My Haemotologist

is reluctant to reduce the ciclosporin. My concerns are that taking ciclosporin can lower haemoglobin, is it

possible that the medication could be causing my raised levels of LDH and and reticulocytes. Would welcome any information. I am multiple relapsed CLL patient.

How high is your LDH? What is your absolute lymphocyte count (ALC)?
