Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
ITP is the immune thrombocytopenic purpura. In ITP your body produces antibodies against your own platelets and causes destruction of your platelets.
Immunosupression is needed to prevent this. So steroids is the drug of choice. It is immunosupressive agents. Neutrolite will not help you. Consult your doctor and take steroids or immunogobulins according to need.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
