Lots of "common side effects".
Has this been FDA approved for ITP or is it being used off label?

  • ITP since 2014. Retired nurse. My belief is empower patients to be involved as much as possible in their care. Read, read, read & ALWAYS question medics about the evidence base they use.

From what I can find it has not got FDA approval for ITP. It certainly isn't licensed for IT over here.
There does seem to be quite a bit of research going on regarding treating ITP with it however.
