A member asked:

Can antibiotics cause low platelets even after they are out of your system? (amoxacillin & azithromycin)

Low platelets count: as a side effect to an antibiotic such as amoxicillin can happen, although rare, is reversible, it might take time though after stopping the antibiotic, best wishes
