Promacta (active ingredient: eltrombopag olamine) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP): Promacta is used for the treatment of chronic immune thrombocytopenia in adults and children aged 1 year and older who have had an insufficient response to corticosteroids, immunoglobulins, or splenectomy. ITP is a disorder characterized by low platelet counts, leading to an increased risk of bleeding.
  2. Severe Aplastic Anemia: It is indicated for the treatment of severe aplastic anemia in patients who have had an insufficient response to immunosuppressive therapy.
  3. Chronic Hepatitis C-Associated Thrombocytopenia: Promacta is also indicated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic hepatitis C to allow the initiation and maintenance of interferon-based therapy.

Promacta belongs to a class of drugs known as thrombopoietin receptor agonists, which work by stimulating the production of platelets in the bone marrow, thereby increasing platelet counts in the blood.

To take Promacta tablet orally, follow the instructions given by your doctor, which typically involves taking it once daily. Do not take it with a meal or alongside any products containing magnesium, aluminum, or calcium-rich foods with over 50 milligrams of calcium. Also, ensure you take it at least 2 hours before or 4 hours after consuming such products. Do not split, chew, or crush the tablet, nor mix it with any food or liquid.

The recommended dose of Promacta (eltrombopag olamine) may vary depending on the individual patient and the specific condition being treated.

  • The starting dose for most patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is 50 mg once daily, and the dose can be increased by 25 mg per day every 2 weeks based on the patient’s platelet count. The maximum daily dose should not exceed 75 mg per day.
  • For patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA), the recommended dose is 150 mg once daily for 6 months. However, consult a healthcare professional for an accurate and personalized dosing recommendation as individual factors must be considered.
  • For severe aplastic anemia treatment, the recommended dosage is 150mg once daily for 6 months.
