Remission on eltrombopag
Has anyone here experienced a remission while taking
eltrombopag
(revolade, promacta). I was put on the drug a year ago after some very low platelet counts (single figures), My initial dose was 50mg a day and I responded very quickly with counts over 350 after 2 weeks.

Eltrombopag tablets
Hi there l have been on the drug
eltrombopag
for 18 months. First starting at 75mg but now on 25mg. This has been a life saver for me. Tried all the other drugs with no good results, but
eltrombopag
was great. Give it a try - good luck.

ITP for 23 years - I’m now 40.
For the last month my blood has been under 10 more like 4 - 6 (same really) and the doc has put me on
Eltrombopag
, 4 days in. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with how long it usually takes to come into effect?

Treatment via injection
Our daughter has started to show significant side effects to
Eltrombopag
and so we’re having to consider other options. She was given a smaller dose to see if this reduced the side effects but her count plummeted unfortunately....... Any help is greatly appreciated.

How I Finally Got Eltrombopag to Work For Me
I've been on
Eltrombopag
for nearly 2 years now and, as those that are on it will know, getting your diet right both 4 hours before and 4 hours after taking your tablet can be very difficult as the medication does not work at all well when you have eaten any dairy or anything with added vitamins and

Eltrombopag (responses in children ITP)
My 4 year old daughter had been taking
eltrombopag
since March. Prior to this she tried rituximab and prednisone with no success. Platelets had always been single figures since diagnosis in march 2015 (count was 12-16 with prednisone).

Ear piercing
No success with steroids or chemo although
Eltrombopag
has really suited her and has catapulted and sustained a count in the 200's which is nothing short of incredible. Lots of "normal things" were put on hold over the last year. Would it be ok for her to have her ears pierced now?

Introduce
The last 2 weeks, I started on lowest dose of
eltrombopag
. After 5 days of taking it my count rose to over 1400 and a week later still rising even though stopped taking. Potassium levels also rose very high. Consultant waiting for count to drop to decide where we go from here.

Chronic itp. Latest treatment is rituximab
I was then placed on
eltrombopag
in September 15. Counts were reaching dizzy heights of 30 which was good for me. Unfortunately, after Christmas stopped responding to this. With a count of 2, they started me on rituximab and I have now had the last of the standard 4 treatments yesterday.

Curious_Patient with ITP
He advised me again to continue taking
Eltrombopag
(75mg) and Warfarin (3mg) everyday as well as once-a-week (for a month) Rituximab. My concern is that after injecting Rituximab into my body, I feel much of muscle pain (as if my muscles/bones are being ripped).

Starting a new therapy for Itp
Has anyone taken Promacta (
eltrombopag
) as a treatment for ITP? I am starting the pill on Monday and terribly anxious after reading the terrible side effects list. Sounds even worse than taking steroids which I have been doing daily for eight years.
