Abstract
A patient with idiopathic myelofibrosis is reported who developed a drug fever after treatment with hydroxyurea, a generally effective and well-tolerated drug in chronic myeloproliferative syndromes. Typically, this form of fever develops after a few weeks of exposure to the drug and disappears with discontinuation of the drug. Possible interactions with prostaglandin or leukotriene metabolism may play a role.
