Platelets are usually boosted by adjusting the daily diet, platelet transfusions, or taking medications. Different treatments are chosen according to different causes.
1. Megaloblastic anemia can have platelet drop, which can be corrected by supplementing folic acid, vitamin B12 and other hematopoietic raw materials, and eating more meat, fish, vegetables and fruits in diet.
2. If the platelets of patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia are lower than 30×10^9/L, it is recommended to use glucocorticoid (prednisone), intravenous human immunoglobulin or TPO receptor agonist (Eltrombopag) to enhance the platelets.
3. If the platelets are extremely low due to bone marrow hematopoietic failure diseases, such as aplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia after chemotherapy, etc., they are usually treated by platelet transfusion and stimulation of hematopoiesis.
4. Thrombocytopenia caused by malignant hematological diseases, such as acute myeloid leukemia, need to be given cytarabine, Zoerythromycin and other drugs chemotherapy, after the disease is in remission, the platelet index can slowly return to normal.
It is recommended to consult a doctor in time after the discovery of thrombocytopenia, and choose different treatments according to the different causes of the disease.
