Was that bilirubin level flagged as high? Depending on whether or not that was a Direct bilirubin level or Total bilirubin level, it may or may not have been out of normal range.
Usually when our son gets some kind of a cold/flu type virus we try to give him as little as possible. Tylenol for fever and aches, saline nasal spray for congestion with lots and lots of fluids.
You certainly do need to read labels and stay away from anything containing aspirin or ibuprofen if platelets are an issue for your dad. Pepto Bismol and Alka Seltzer products that contain salicylates are also a no no for people with low platelets.
