A member asked:
What are the chances that cefixime (or any antibiotic for that matter) could cause low platelet count? could it actually have a side-effect of prolonged & profuse bleeding of say- an infected cut/wound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lo Platelets, ?cause: Low platelets due to antibiotic use are an unlikely cause. A repeat check should be done as there is a good chance it was a laboratory error. What was the actual count?
