I have ITP. Can lifestyle changes prevent platelet drop?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and I understand that you have ITP (immune thrombocytopenia), and currently you are using Eltrombopag 50mg daily with a last platelet count of 45,000/µL (microliter) and mild bleeding tendency with these counts. Your monthly frequency of CBC (complete blood count) and LFTs (liver function test) is adequate for someone on Eltrombopag. Your last platelet count shows a good response. If counts drop or bleeding worsens, the dose can be increased up to 75 mg daily after consulting with your hematologist.
