Trombopag 25 mg / 50 mg Tablets (Eltrombopag) – Uses, Benefits & Side Effects
Description
Trombopag 25 mg and 50 mg Tablets contain eltrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist that helps stimulate platelet production in the bone marrow. Platelets are blood cells that help the body form clots and control bleeding.
Eltrombopag is a prescription medicine used for specific conditions associated with low platelet counts, depending on the patient's diagnosis and the locally approved product information. These may include persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), certain cases of hepatitis C-associated thrombocytopenia, and severe aplastic anaemia.

Benefits and Uses of Eltrombopag Tablets
1. Supports platelet production
Eltrombopag stimulates the thrombopoietin receptor, encouraging the production of platelets. This can help increase platelet counts in patients with approved indications.
2. Management of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)
Doctors may prescribe eltrombopag for eligible patients with persistent or chronic ITP who have not responded adequately to certain previous treatments. The aim is to maintain a clinically appropriate platelet count and reduce bleeding risk.
3. Use in severe aplastic anaemia
In eligible patients with severe aplastic anaemia, eltrombopag may help improve blood cell production as part of a specialist-directed treatment plan.
4. Selected hepatitis C-related cases
Depending on the applicable product approval and treatment guidelines, eltrombopag may be used to manage low platelet counts in certain patients with chronic hepatitis C receiving specific therapies.
The medicine is not suitable for every cause of low platelets and should be used only under qualified medical supervision.
