ITP :

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura or ITP is a rare autoimmune disorder in which there are low levels of blood platelets. As a result, blood does not clot properly.

The main reason behind this is production of certain antibodies that attack and destroy the blood platelets. ITP is more common in young children, around 2-4 years of age. Such children experience increased episodes of bruising and bleeding.

What is first treatment for Immune thrombocytopenia(ITP)?

The first line of treatment for ITP typically involves medications that increase platelet production or reduce the destruction of platelets. This may include corticosteroids, immunoglobulins, or other drugs that suppress the immune system.

What to avoid if you have ITP?

If you have ITP (Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura), you should avoid activities that may increase the risk of bleeding, such as contact sports, heavy lifting, and using non-sterile needles. You should also avoid alcohol and certain medications, such as aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can lower the platelet count and increase the risk of bleeding.
Frequently Asked Questions
The survival rate for ITP varies depending on the severity of the condition and the response to treatment. Most people with ITP have a good prognosis, and the majority of patients are able to manage the condition with medication or other treatments. However, in severe cases, ITP can be life-threatening and may require more aggressive treatment.
Immune thrombocytopenia can occur at any age, but it is most commonly diagnosed in children and older adults. While ITP can become more severe with age, it is not necessarily a progressive condition and can often be managed with appropriate treatment.
