1. What Eltrombopag Sandoz is and what it is used for
Eltrombopag Sandoz contains eltrombopag, which belongs to a group of medicines called thrombopoietin receptor agonists. It is used to increase the number of platelets in your blood. Platelets are blood cells that help reduce or prevent the risk of bleeding.
- Eltrombopag Sandoz is used to treat a blood clotting disorder called immune (primary) thrombocytopenia in patients over 1 year of age who have previously been treated with other medicines (corticosteroids or immunoglobulins) that have not worked.
Immune thrombocytopenia is caused by a low number of platelets in the blood (thrombocytopenia). People with immune thrombocytopenia are at increased 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 Sandoz may also be used to treat low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have difficulties due to side effects during interferon-based therapy. Many people with hepatitis C have low platelet counts, not only because of the disease itself but also due to the effects of certain antiviral medicines used in treatment. Taking Eltrombopag Sandoz may help patients complete full antiviral treatment (with pegylated interferon and ribavirin).
2. Important information before using Eltrombopag Sandoz
When not to use Eltrombopag Sandoz
- if the patient is allergic to eltrombopag or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6 under "What Eltrombopag Sandoz contains"). Consult a doctor if the patient thinks this applies to them.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Eltrombopag Sandoz, discuss the following with the 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 this medicine outweigh the risks, the patient will be closely monitored during treatment;
- if the patient is at risk of developing blood clots in veins or arteries, or if blood clots are common in the patient’s family. The risk of blood clots may be increased:
- if the patient is elderly
- if the patient has been immobile for a prolonged period
- if the patient has cancer
- if the patient is taking oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy
- if the patient has recently undergone surgery or suffered trauma
- if the patient is overweight
- if the patient smokes
- if the patient has advanced chronic liver disease
Inform the doctor before starting treatment if any of the above conditions apply to the patient. Do not take Eltrombopag Sandoz unless the doctor determines that the expected benefits outweigh the risk of blood clots.
- if the patient has cataracts (clouding of the eye lens)
- if the patient has other blood disorders, such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Before starting Eltrombopag Sandoz, the doctor will perform tests to rule out this condition. If the patient has MDS and takes this medicine, MDS may worsen. Inform the doctor if any of the above situations apply to the patient.
Ophthalmological examination
The treating doctor will recommend regular eye examinations to detect cataracts. If the patient does not routinely undergo eye examinations, the doctor should arrange regular checks. Examinations may also include assessment for any bleeding in or around the retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye).
Regular tests will be required
Before starting Eltrombopag Sandoz, the doctor will perform blood tests to evaluate blood cells, including platelets. These tests will be repeated periodically during treatment.
Liver function blood tests
Treatment with eltrombopag may lead to blood test results indicating possible liver damage – increased activity of certain liver enzymes, particularly alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, and increased bilirubin levels. If the patient is receiving interferon-based therapy simultaneously with Eltrombopag Sandoz for low platelet count associated with hepatitis C, certain liver conditions may worsen.
Before starting Eltrombopag Sandoz and periodically during treatment, the patient will undergo blood tests to assess liver function. It may be necessary to discontinue Eltrombopag Sandoz if levels of these substances rise too high or if other signs of liver damage occur.
Refer to the information in section 4 of this leaflet, "Liver disease".
Monitoring platelet count
If the patient stops taking Eltrombopag Sandoz, platelet counts may decrease again 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 blood clots. However, blood clots may also occur when platelet counts are normal or low. The treating doctor will adjust the dose of Eltrombopag Sandoz to prevent excessive increases in platelet count.
Seek immediate medical help if the patient experiences any of the following symptoms of blood clots:
- swelling, pain, or tenderness in one leg
- sudden shortness of breath, especially with sharp chest pain or rapid breathing
- abdominal pain, abdominal swelling, or blood in stool.
Bone marrow examinations
In patients with bone marrow disorders, medicines such as Eltrombopag Sandoz 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 Sandoz.
Tests to detect gastrointestinal bleeding
If the patient is receiving interferon-based therapy simultaneously with Eltrombopag Sandoz, they will be monitored for signs of bleeding from the stomach or intestines after stopping Eltrombopag Sandoz treatment.
Heart examinations
The doctor may consider it necessary to monitor the patient’s heart during treatment with Eltrombopag Sandoz and may perform an electrocardiogram (ECG).
Elderly patients (aged 65 years and older)
There is limited data on the use of eltrombopag in patients aged 65 years and older. Caution should be exercised when using Eltrombopag Sandoz in patients aged 65 years and older.
Children and adolescents
Eltrombopag is not recommended for children under 1 year of age with immune thrombocytopenia.
The medicine is also not recommended for patients under 18 years of age with low platelet count due to hepatitis C virus infection.
Eltrombopag Sandoz and other medicines
Tell the doctor or pharmacist about all medicines the patient is currently taking, has recently taken, or plans to take, including over-the-counter medicines and vitamins.
Some commonly used medicines interact with Eltrombopag Sandoz – including both prescription and over-the-counter medicines, as well as mineral supplements. These include:
- antacids used to neutralize stomach acid in the treatment of indigestion, heartburn, or stomach ulcers (see also "When to take the medicine" in section 3)
- statins, which lower cholesterol levels
- certain medicines used to treat HIV infection, such as lopinavir and/or ritonavir
- cyclosporine, used in transplant patients or in autoimmune diseases
- minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, selenium, and zinc, which may be components of vitamin and mineral supplements (see also "When to take the medicine" in section 3)
- medicines such as methotrexate and topotecan, used in cancer treatment.
Consult a doctor if the patient is taking any of the medicines listed above. Some of these medicines must not be taken during treatment with Eltrombopag Sandoz; others may require dose adjustments or appropriate timing of administration. The doctor will review all medicines the patient is taking and recommend changes in treatment if necessary.
If the patient is taking anticoagulant medicines to prevent blood clots, the risk of bleeding may be increased. The treating doctor will discuss this with the patient.
If the patient is taking corticosteroids, danazol, and/or azathioprine, the doses of these medicines may be reduced or their use discontinued during treatment with Eltrombopag Sandoz.
Taking Eltrombopag Sandoz with food and drink
Eltrombopag Sandoz must not be taken with dairy products or dairy drinks, as the calcium in dairy products affects the absorption of the medicine. For further information, see "When to take the medicine" in section 3.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Do not use Eltrombopag Sandoz during pregnancy, unless the doctor specifically advises it. The effect of Eltrombopag Sandoz during pregnancy is unknown.

4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody will experience them.
Symptoms to be aware of: consult a doctor
In patients treated with Eltrombopag Sandoz for primary immune thrombocytopenia or
thrombocytopenia associated with hepatitis C, symptoms of severe adverse reactions may occur.
It is important to inform your doctor if any of these symptoms occur.
Increased risk of thrombosis
Some patients may have an increased risk of blood clots, and medicines such as Eltrombopag
Sandoz may increase this risk. Sudden blockage of a blood vessel by a clot is an uncommon
adverse reaction and may occur in up to 1 in 100 patients. Seek immediate medical help if the
patient experiences any symptoms of thrombosis such as:
- swelling, pain, warmth, redness or tenderness in one leg
- sudden shortness of breath, especially with sharp chest pain or rapid breathing
- abdominal pain (stomach pain), abdominal swelling, blood in stool.

Eltrombopag Sandoz may cause changes detectable in blood tests that may indicate liver damage.
Liver function abnormalities (increased liver enzyme levels in blood tests) are common and may
affect up to 1 in 10 patients. Other liver-related problems are uncommon and may affect up to
1 in 100 patients.
If any of the following symptoms of liver problems occur:
- yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes (jaundice)
- abnormally dark urine, seek immediate medical advice.
Bleeding or bruising after stopping treatment
Usually within two weeks of stopping Eltrombopag Sandoz, the patient's platelet count decreases
to the level observed before starting Eltrombopag Sandoz. Low platelet count may increase the
risk of bleeding or bruising. Your doctor will monitor the patient's platelet count for at least 4
weeks after stopping Eltrombopag Sandoz.
Inform your doctor if bruising or bleeding occurs after stopping Eltrombopag Sandoz.
Some patients may experience gastrointestinal bleeding after discontinuing peginterferon,
ribavirin, and eltrombopag. Symptoms include:
