Abstract

Because high-dose oral dexamethasone therapy has been reported to be effective for adults with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, we assessed the short-term efficacy and toxicity of dexamethasone in seven children with chronic or refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Dexamethasone therapy was effective and well tolerated; further long-term studies are warranted. (J P EDIATR 1996;128:281-3)
