Abstract ITP (Immune thrombocytopenic purpura) is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the platelets leading to the low platelet levels. ITP may occur in the absence of a predisposing cause (primary ITP) or due to a growing list of associated conditions (secondary ITP), and must be differentiated from other causes of thrombocytopenia. ITP can be acute and chronic. It can cause purple bruises and tiny purple red dots on the skin that looks like a rash. Modern medicine has no effective treatment for ITP. A 26 year old female patient presented with the complaints of bruises, nose bleeding, heavy menstruation, pain in left leg and irritability. The clinical findings and symptoms of the patient pointed to ITP. It is associated with Tiryagata Raktapitta in Ayurvedic diagnosis. The patient was given Platoplan along with Kumar Kalyan Ras, Swarn Vasant Malti Ras, Pitta Balance. After a month, the patient reported relief in some of the symptoms. Platelet count increased from 41,000 to 1,89,000. After completing the medications the most common problem of low platelets reduced.
