Description
Revolade (eltrombopag) Coated Tablets 25 mg. №28
Ingredients:
Each coated tablet contains 25 mg of eltrombopag.
Dosage:
The recommended dose is 25 mg once daily. Dosage may vary based on individual patient needs and should be determined by a healthcare provider.
Indications:
Revolade is indicated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and chronic hepatitis C-associated thrombocytopenia.
Contraindications:
Do not use Revolade in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to eltrombopag or any component of the formulation. It is also contraindicated in patients with thrombocytopenia due to causes other than chronic ITP or chronic hepatitis C.
Directions:
Take Revolade exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The tablets should be swallowed whole with a glass of water, with or without food.
Scientific Evidence:
Studies have shown that eltrombopag, the active ingredient in Revolade, effectively increases platelet counts in patients with chronic ITP. Research published in the New England Journal of Medicine demonstrated the efficacy of eltrombopag in maintaining platelet counts and reducing the risk of bleeding episodes.
Additional Information:
It is important to monitor liver function tests regularly during treatment with Revolade. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience signs of liver problems such as jaundice, dark urine, or persistent nausea.
Revolade works by stimulating the production of platelets in the bone marrow, helping to increase platelet counts in patients with thrombocytopenia. By mimicking the action of thrombopoietin, eltrombopag promotes the differentiation and proliferation of megakaryocytes, the precursors to platelets.
Clinical trials have shown that Revolade is effective in maintaining platelet counts and reducing the need for concomitant ITP therapies. Compared to traditional treatments, eltrombopag offers a convenient once-daily dosing regimen and has demonstrated a favorable safety profile in long-term use.
