Brief Answer:
Tab Caripill

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

There are no proven medications which increase the platelet count. It will naturally increase to normal once the viral particles number come down in the blood.

You can take Tab Caripill twice daily which is papaya leaf extract . This though not through the studies but has shown improvement in platelet count when taken.

Hope, I answered your query.
