White blood cell 2.4 is serious?

Leukocyte 2.4 usually refers to a white blood cell count of 2.4×10^9/L, while the normal white blood cell count range is (4~10)×10^9/L. Therefore, leukocyte 2.4×10^9/L belongs to leukopenia, which is still relatively serious, and the degree of severity depends on the specific cause of the disease, as follows:
1. If it is a viral infection, the leukocytes are consumed in large quantities leading to leukopenia, the severity of this case is relatively mild. After active antiviral treatment, the white blood cells will usually rise, and the drugs include ganciclovir and so on.
2. Drug-induced leukopenia, such as antitumor drugs (carboplatin), immunosuppressants (cyclophosphamide), antithyroid drugs (methylthiouracil) and so on may cause leukopenia, usually after stopping the suspected drugs and taking sufficient rest, leukocytes will return to normal.
3. Some blood system diseases such as leukemia, aplastic anemia, lymphoma, etc. may cause hematopoietic dysfunction, unable to produce mature white blood cells and cause leukopenia, which is a more serious situation, and need to be actively treated for the primary disease, if not treated in time, it is easy to cause infections that are not easy to be controlled, and fever and so on.
Such as acute myeloid leukemia to be a sugar cytosine, Zoerythromycin and other drugs chemotherapy.
In conclusion, leukocytes 2.4×10^9/L need to be taken seriously, and it is recommended that further consultation in the hematology department be made to identify the cause and standardize the treatment under the guidance of physicians.
