Although you asked about aplastic anemia, here are some drugs that can lead to leukopenia or agranulocytosis and maybe, some of them, pancytopenia: antithyreoid drugs, clozapine (atipic neuroleptic), anti HIV drugs, cytotoxic drugs, ticlopidine (antiagregation). There are even more, but I can't remember right now.
