It might be iffy. Cipro can cause low platelets, but then again it can cause high platelets. Do you see a hematologist? That is something you should ask, what medication is it best for you to stay away from, if there is one.
I would say if you are on it you should have a platelet count down when you finish it. Those side effects are in the rare list, so its not something that happens a lot.
