How often do you monitor labs such as complete blood count, liver function panel, and urine protein in a patient with cystinuria receiving tiopronin?

I check patients newly started on tiopronin or after an increase in dosage about one month later. Assuming the lab results are normal, I do not continue to check them. I think late adverse reactions must be very rare. Stephen B Erickson, MD
