Shouldn't....: Your platelet count is now normal and low platelets is not listed as a side effect of either tramadol or lisinopril. You should continue to monitor your platelet count with your doctor however. Itp is an autoimmune condition, meaning your body makes antibodies against itself, in this case the platelets. It is usually self-limited and resolves in 2 months in children, 6 months in adults.

Neither drug...: Is associated with thrombocytopenia. Tramadol is used to treat pain, not hypertension. Its side effect profile includes drowsiness, headache, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, etc. Lisinopril, an ace inhibitor, has a side effect profile that includes blurred vision, drowsiness, fatigue, dizziness, sweats, abdominal pain, etc. Your current PLT count is within normal limits, suggesting compensated itp.
