Pediatric thrombocytopenia
Treatment
Treatment depends on the cause of your child's thrombocytopenia. In some cases, treatment might not be necessary. Thrombocytopenia may improve if an underlying cause is identified and treated. Treatment for thrombocytopenia may include medications, such as corticosteroids, gamma globulin or immune-suppressing drugs, and blood or platelet transfusions.
