Results represent the percentage decrease in blood cell counts (±SD) after 7 days of GCV administration (0.1 mg/d/g body weight), during the early stage of recovery (48 hours to 4 days after discontinuing GCV), and during the late phase of recovery (6 to 8 days and 15 to 20 days after GCV withdrawal).
