Additional treatment options

Corticosteroid therapy for significant thrombocytopenia

Corticosteroids may be used when platelet counts fall significantly or bleeding symptoms occur. Response should be assessed before continuing prolonged therapy.

medication

Medication review and avoidance of platelet-altering drugs

Systematic review of all medications to eliminate those that impair platelet function or count. NSAIDs, aspirin, and certain antibiotics may exacerbate thrombocytopenia.
