1. What Eltrombopag Polpharma is and what it is used for

Eltrombopag Polpharma contains eltrombopag, which belongs to a group of medicines called thrombopoietin receptor agonists. This medicine is used to increase the number of platelets in your blood. Platelets are blood components that help reduce or prevent the risk of bleeding.

Eltrombopag Polpharma is used in the treatment of a blood clotting disorder called immune (primary) thrombocytopenia in patients over 1 year of age who have already been treated with other medicines (corticosteroids or immunoglobulins) that were ineffective. Immune thrombocytopenia is caused by a low number of blood platelets (thrombocytopenia). People with immune thrombocytopenia are at higher risk of bleeding. Symptoms that patients with immune thrombocytopenia may notice include petechiae (small, flat, red, round spots under the skin), bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, and difficulty stopping bleeding after a cut or injury.

Eltrombopag Polpharma may also be used to treat low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) in adults with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have experienced difficulties due to side effects during interferon-based treatment. Many people with hepatitis C have low platelet counts, not only due to the disease itself but also as a result of certain antiviral medicines used in treatment. Taking Eltrombopag Polpharma may help patients complete a full course of antiviral therapy (pegylated interferon and ribavirin).

2. Important information before using Eltrombopag Polpharma

When not to use Eltrombopag Polpharma

  • if the patient is allergic to eltrombopag or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6 under "What Eltrombopag Polpharma contains"). The patient should consult a doctor if they think they are experiencing the condition described above.

Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Eltrombopag Polpharma, discuss the following with your doctor:

  • if the patient has liver disease. Patients with low platelet counts and/or advanced (chronic) liver disease are at increased risk of adverse reactions, including life-threatening liver damage and blood clots. If the doctor considers that the benefits of taking Eltrombopag Polpharma outweigh the risks, the patient will be closely monitored during treatment.
  • if the patient is at risk of venous or arterial thrombosis, or if there is a family history of blood clots. The risk of thrombosis may be increased:
  • if the patient is elderly
  • if the patient has been immobilized for a prolonged period
  • if the patient has a malignant tumour
  • if the patient is taking oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy
  • if the patient has recently undergone surgery or experienced trauma
  • if the patient is overweight
  • if the patient smokes
  • if the patient has advanced chronic liver disease. The patient should inform the doctor before starting treatment if any of the above conditions apply. Eltrombopag Polpharma should not be taken unless the doctor considers that the expected benefits outweigh the risk of thrombosis.
  • if the patient has cataracts (clouding of the eye's lens)
  • if the patient has other blood disorders, such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Before starting Eltrombopag Polpharma, the doctor will perform tests to rule out this condition. If the patient has MDS and takes Eltrombopag Polpharma, MDS may worsen.

The patient should inform the doctor if any of the above situations apply.
Ophthalmological examination
The treating doctor will recommend regular check-ups to detect cataracts. If the patient does not routinely undergo ophthalmological examinations, the doctor should schedule regular eye exams. Examinations may also include detection of any bleeding in or near the retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye).
Regular monitoring is required
Before starting Eltrombopag Polpharma, the doctor will perform blood tests to assess blood cells, including platelets. These tests will be repeated periodically during treatment.
Liver function blood tests
Eltrombopag Polpharma may cause blood test results indicating liver damage—elevated activity of certain liver enzymes, particularly bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). If the patient is receiving interferon-based therapy concurrently with Eltrombopag Polpharma for thrombocytopenia associated with hepatitis C, certain liver conditions may worsen.
Before starting Eltrombopag Polpharma and periodically during treatment, blood tests assessing liver function will be performed. It may be necessary to discontinue Eltrombopag Polpharma if levels of these substances rise too high or if other signs of liver damage occur.
Please refer to section 4 of this leaflet, “ Liver disorders ”.
Monitoring platelet count
If the patient stops taking Eltrombopag Polpharma, low platelet count may recur within a few days. Platelet counts will be monitored, and the treating doctor will discuss appropriate precautions with the patient.
A very high platelet count may increase the risk of thrombosis. However, blood clots may also occur even when platelet counts are normal or low. The treating doctor will adjust the dose of Eltrombopag Polpharma to avoid excessive increases in platelet count.
Seek immediate medical help if the patient experiences any of the following symptoms of thrombosis:

  • swelling, pain, or tenderness in one leg
  • sudden shortness of breath, especially with acute chest pain or rapid breathing
  • abdominal pain, abdominal swelling, or blood in the stool.

Bone marrow examinations
In patients with bone marrow disorders, medicines such as Eltrombopag Polpharma may worsen these conditions. Changes in the bone marrow may manifest as abnormal blood test results. The treating doctor may recommend direct bone marrow examinations during treatment with Eltrombopag Polpharma.
Tests to detect gastrointestinal bleeding
If the patient is receiving interferon-based therapy concurrently with Eltrombopag Polpharma, they will be monitored for signs of bleeding from the stomach or intestines after stopping Eltrombopag Polpharma treatment.
Heart examinations
The treating doctor may consider it necessary to monitor the patient's heart during treatment with Eltrombopag Polpharma and may perform an electrocardiogram (ECG).
Elderly patients (65 years and older)
There is limited data on the use of Eltrombopag Polpharma in patients aged 65 years and older. Caution should be exercised when using Eltrombopag Polpharma in patients aged 65 years and older.
Children and adolescents
Eltrombopag Polpharma is not recommended for children under 1 year of age with immune thrombocytopenia. It is also not recommended for patients under 18 years of age with thrombocytopenia due to hepatitis C virus infection.
Eltrombopag Polpharma and other medicines
Inform your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines the patient is currently taking or has recently taken, as well as any medicines they plan to take. This includes over-the-counter medicines and vitamins.
Some commonly used medicines interact with Eltrombopag Polpharma – including both prescription and over-the-counter medicines, as well as mineral-containing supplements. These include:
