Key messages

  • ITP is an autoimmune condition, in addition to thyroid disease, that can present in new onset T1D.
  • More research is needed to measure the frequency of ITP among patients with type 1 diabetes.
  • Eltrombopag is a good treatment option for ITP, as it does not interfere with glycemic control.
