Question

Can taking expired medication lead to allergic purpura?

Answer

Allergic purpura is an allergic vasculitis that affects capillaries and small arteries in the skin or other organs. There is no direct evidence to suggest a causal relationship between taking expired medication and allergic purpura. The onset of allergic purpura may be related to various factors, including infections, food allergies, and drug allergies. If there is a suspicion that allergic purpura is related to medication, it is recommended to discontinue the medication immediately and seek professional medical advice.
