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

Eltrombopag Accord contains eltrombopag, which belongs to a group of medicines called thrombopoietin receptor agonists, used to help increase the number of platelets in the blood. Platelets are cells in the blood that help to stop or prevent bleeding.

  • Eltrombopag Accord is used to treat a blood disorder called immune (primary) thrombocytopenia (ITP) in patients over 1 year of age who have had other treatments (such as corticosteroids or immunoglobulins) that have not worked.
  • ITP is caused by a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia). People with ITP have a higher risk of bleeding. Symptoms that patients with ITP may notice are petechiae (small, round, flat red spots under the skin), bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, and an inability to stop bleeding if they cut or injure themselves.
  • Eltrombopag Accord may also be used to treat low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) in adults with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, in case they have had problems with the side effects of interferon treatment. Many people with hepatitis C have low platelet counts, not only due to the disease but also due to the antiviral treatments used to treat it. Taking Eltrombopag Accord may help you complete the cycle with antivirals (peginterferon and ribavirin).

2. What you need to know before you take Eltrombopag Accord

Do not take Eltrombopag Accord

  • if you are allergicto eltrombopag or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6 under the heading “Composition of Eltrombopag Accord”).

→ Consult your doctorif you think this may apply to you.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor before starting Eltrombopag Accord:

  • if you have liver problems. People who have a low platelet count and advanced chronic liver disease are at higher risk of side effects, liver damage that can be fatal, and blood clots. If your doctor considers that the benefit of Eltrombopag Accord outweighs the risks, you will be closely monitored during treatment.
  • if you are at risk of having a blood clotin your veins or arteries, or if you know that blood clots are common in your family.

The risk of having a blood clot may be higherin the following circumstances:

  • if you are elderly
  • if you have been bedridden for a long time
  • if you have cancer
  • if you are taking birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy
  • if you have had recent surgery or physical trauma
  • if you are severely overweight (obese)
  • if you are a smoker
  • if you have advanced chronic liver disease

→ If you are in any of these situations, tell your doctorbefore starting treatment. You should not take Eltrombopag Accord unless your doctor considers that the expected benefit outweighs the risk of having blood clots.

  • if you have cataracts(clouding of the lens in the eye).
  • if you have another blood disorder, such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Before starting Eltrombopag Accord, your doctor will perform tests to check that you do not have this disease. If you have MDS and take Eltrombopag Accord, MDS may worsen.

Tell your doctorif you are in any of these situations.

Eye exams

Your doctor will recommend that you have an eye exam to check for cataracts. If you do not have regular eye exams, your doctor will ask you to have one. They will also check your retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye) for bleeding in the retina or around it.

You will need to have regular blood tests

Before you start taking Eltrombopag Accord, your doctor will perform a blood test to check your blood cells, including platelets. These tests will be repeated frequently while you are taking the medicine.

Blood tests to check liver function

Eltrombopag Accord may cause changes in your liver function tests, including increased levels of certain liver enzymes, especially bilirubin and alanine/aspartate transaminase. If you are taking interferon, a base treatment with Eltrombopag Accord for low platelet counts due to hepatitis C, some liver problems may worsen.

You will have blood tests before starting Eltrombopag Accord and frequently while taking it to check your liver function. It may be necessary to stop Eltrombopag Accord treatment if the levels of these markers increase too much or if you have any other signs of liver damage.

→ Read the information on “Liver problems” in section 4 of this leaflet

Blood tests for platelet count

If you stop taking Eltrombopag Accord, it is likely that your platelet count will decrease again within a few days. Your platelet count will be monitored, and your doctor will advise you on the precautions to take.

Very high platelet counts may increase the risk of blood clots. However, blood clots can also form with normal or even low platelet counts. Your doctor will adjust the dose of Eltrombopag Accord to ensure that your platelet count does not become too high.

Seek medical help immediatelyif you have any of these signs of a blood clot:

  • swelling, painor tenderness in a leg
  • sudden difficulty breathing, which may be accompanied by sharp chest pain or rapid breathing
  • abdominal pain (stomach), enlarged abdomen, blood in the stool.

Tests to examine your bone marrow

In people with bone marrow problems, medicines like Eltrombopag Accord may worsen the problems. Signs of changes in the bone marrow may appear as abnormal results in your blood tests. Your doctor may also perform tests to directly check your bone marrow during Eltrombopag Accord treatment.

Review of gastrointestinal bleeding

If you are taking interferon, a base treatment with Eltrombopag Accord, you will be monitored for signs of bleeding in your stomach or intestine after you stop taking Eltrombopag Accord.

Heart monitoring

Your doctor may consider monitoring your heart while you are taking Eltrombopag Accord with an electrocardiogram, if necessary.

Elderly patients (65 years and over)

There is limited data on the use of Eltrombopag Accord in patients aged 65 years and over. If you are 65 or older, you should be cautious when using Eltrombopag Accord.

Children and adolescents

Eltrombopag Accord is not recommended for use in children under 1 year of age with ITP. It is also not recommended in children under 18 years of age with low platelet counts due to hepatitis C.

→ Consult your doctorif you are taking any of these medicines. Some should not be taken with Eltrombopag Accord; the dose may need to be adjusted, or you may need to change the times when you take them. Your doctor will review the medicines you are taking and recommend alternatives if necessary.

If you are also taking medicines to prevent blood clots, there is a higher risk of bleeding. Your doctor will discuss this with you.

If you are taking corticosteroids, danazol,and/or azathioprinewith Eltrombopag Accord, it may be necessary to reduce the dose or stop treatment with these medicines.

4. Possible Adverse Effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause adverse effects, although not all people suffer from them.

Symptoms to which you need to pay attention: consult your doctor

People taking Eltrombopag Viatris for both ITP and low platelet counts associated with hepatitis C may exhibit signs related to possible serious adverse effects. It is essential that you inform your doctor if you develop symptoms.

Seek medical help immediately if you present signs or symptoms of thrombosis, such as:
