Abstract

ITP (Immune thrombocytopenic purpura) is a blood autoimmune disorder that causes a decrease in platelet count. Platelets are blood cells that help to stop bleeding. And a sudden decrease in platelets can cause internal bleeding. The condition of ITP can be acute or chronic. An acute infection often appears to be an initial trigger, but that may only potentiate an already established immunologic disturbance. An acute ITP in children often goes away on its own within a few weeks or months, and for a few, this does not go away on its own it can only then be treated. It has been seen that modern medicines have no such effective treatment for ITP. A 1.5-year-old baby girl has been seen with complaints of red spots and bruises on her body. The symptoms are almost related to ITP. And after a clinical diagnosis, it was concluded that she has ITP. In Ayurvedic terms, ITP is associated with Triyagata Rakatpitta. A case study shows the effective results of giving the ayurvedic herbal formulations to the patient. The patient was given Plato Plan syrup along with Kumar Kalyan Kalyan ras, Suvaran basant malti ras, and Praval panchamrit ras. After a month, the patient reported relief from some symptoms. Her platelet count increased from 50,000 to 1,54,000. After completing the ayurvedic treatment for approximately three months, the problem of low platelets gets reduced.
