Hi welcome to health care magic forum,
Not sure but it may be the cause so better stop it taking, get your BP checked, Get your blood PT and APTT, INR done,If you are taking any other medication like for cholesterol, Aspirin, Warfarin,etc consult it with your doctor,
Lastly do you pick your nose frequently then it has to be stopped, any trauma on nose, too much hot or too much cold also cause bleeding. So check all the above mentioned things and correlate for your cause.


Regards,
Thanks.
