Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
Nosebleeds are often random and caused by things such as dry air, cold air, or nosepicking, rather than medications or an anatomical or medical problem.
Neither methadone or milkthistle cause nosebleeds.
Don't worry, your granddaughter will be fine, and can continue to take these medications.
