Abstract
A significant increase of the morning lymphocyte count is frequently observed in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory disorders chronically treated with oral mPDN. Heightened awareness that the timing of blood sampling in corticosteroid-treated patients affects lymphocyte counts, with possible hyperlymphocytosis before absorption, should help avoid unnecessary investigations and worry.
