5 Causes of Leukocytosis

Medications

Lithium, corticosteroids, beta-adrenergic agonists, heparin, epinephrine, and some prescription medications would lead to leukocytosis and increase the levels of white blood cells. Thus, make sure to tell your healthcare provider or doctor about any previous drugs that you take. If you purchase OTC products, do not forget to read the labels and check the list of ingredients for some active substances. Avoid exceeding the recommended dose to prevent some possible side effects.
