We are asked regularly about herbal, homeopathic and alternative remedies/cures and the general advice on all of these is to make sure that you discuss in full with your specialist before taking anything at all.

A useful website with good general information is provided at ... mhra.gov.uk/Patientsandpubl...

You may also follow them on TWITTER..... @staysafeherbals

The basic message as always is DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING WITHOUT FULL DISCUSSION WITH YOUR SPECIALIST.

Just from my own personal experience I have not come across any specialists, doctors, nurses or indeed any fellow ITP sufferers who have found anything that helps.
