If you are refering to (Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura) which is a low platlet count usually with unknown cause. This is usally because of your immune system attacking your own platlets, which is called an autoimmune response. As long as your platlet count within normal limits and your physician is comfortable with it then you should be fine. You should generally avoid drugs that will interfere with clotting. Aspirin/Ibuprofin inactivates platlets to prevent clotting, so they probally should be avoided if your platlet count is too low (Again consult your Dr.). If you are unsure about a drug read the accompaning literature and see if it blocks clotting. Hope this helps!

Ask your doctor if he/she can prescribe you phenergen, to help with the nausea and vomiting which, by the way, is a common side affect to both of those medications. \n\nI'm really sorry about the pleurisy it can be extremely painful. If you are experiencing any ittching that is sometimes associated with it then you could take OTC Benadryl and that would serve double duty as it would not only help the itching, but also the nausea. \n\nAs always, consult your physician and pharmacist before talking any medications, and I wish you the best.\n\n---------------------------------\nEdit:\nRegarding the latter posters and allergic reactions:\nIt's a common misconception that nausea and vomiting is a sign of an allergic reaction, it's not, it's a normal however undesirable side effect of the drug. Most drugs have such side effects along with headache, dizzyness and somnolence. Allergic reactions are caused when the body's  immune system attacks a normally harmless substance (the allergen). The immune system calls upon a protective antibody called immunoglobulin E or IgE to fight these invading substances. The large IgE release ends up causing mast cells to be injured or irritated and they release a variety of strong chemicals, including histamine, into the tissues and blood. This causes the itching, swelling, and fluid leaking from nearby cells. These chemicals cause the familiar signs of an allergic reaction that we all recognize,  itching, airway and throat tightening, hay fever and allergic rhinitis to name just a few.

Well, I know they make a Tylenol PM which is basically Unisom and aceteminophen. And there might even be an ibuprofen version I can't remember. So in my opinion there is no problem whatsoever, IOW it would be at least as safe as Tylenol PM and probably safer.

I think you should avoid meth to get a negative result. I doesn't help to take medicine to hide medicine abuse.

Any drug is not safe, all have side effects.  Statins are mainly safe and there are alternatives also.

for most people, the best first line drug is glucophage.  It doees very well in controlling blood sugar and my caue somne weight loss as well. some people cant take it because it makes them nauseated or the diabets has allready wrecked their kidneys.  Avandia and Actos are also very good meds if u have the money or inurance to buy them.  I put all my dm patients on glucophage first if there are no contraindications.

You could never know all the drugs because there are so many. Go to a library and look at the "Physician's Desk Reference" (PDR) and see.

The doctor who prescribed it to you should have given you some dietary guidelines.  Call the office and ask.  The prescription should have also come with an information sheet which would tell you if there's any foods you should avoid while taking it.
