1. What is Eltrombopag Kern Pharma and what is it used for

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

• Eltrombopag is used to treat a blood disorder called immune (primary) thrombocytopenia (ITP) in patients aged 1 year and older 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 include petechiae (small, round, flat red spots under the skin), bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, and an inability to stop bleeding if cut or injured.

• Eltrombopag may also be used to treat low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) in adults with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, if they have had problems with the side effects of treatment with interferon. Many people with hepatitis C have low platelet counts, not only because of the disease but also due to the antiviral treatments used to treat it. Taking eltrombopag may help you complete a full course of antiviral treatment (peginterferon and ribavirin).

2. What you need to know before you take Eltrombopag Kern Pharma

Do not take Eltrombopag Kern Pharma

• to eltrombopag or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Talk to your doctorif you think this may apply to you.

Warnings and precautions

Tell your doctor or pharmacist before you start taking eltrombopag:

• . People who have a low platelet count, as well as advanced chronic liver disease, have a higher risk of side effects, including life-threatening liver damage and blood clots. If your doctor thinks that the benefits of taking this medicine outweigh the risks, they will closely monitor you during treatment.

• in your veins or arteries, or if you know that blood clots are a common problem in your family.

Your risk of having a blood clot may be higherin the following situations:

• if you are older
• if you have been bedridden for a long time
• if you have cancer
• if you are taking the contraceptive pill or hormone replacement therapy
• if you have recently had surgery or been injured
• if you are very overweight (obese)
• if you smoke
• if you have advanced chronic liver disease

Tell your doctorif you are in any of these situations. You should not take eltrombopag unless your doctor thinks that the benefits of taking it outweigh the risks of having blood clots.

• (clouding of the lens in the eye).
• , such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Before you start taking eltrombopag, your doctor will do tests to check that you do not have this disorder. If you have MDS and take this medicine, the MDS may get worse.

Tell your doctorif you are in either of these situations.

Eye examinations

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

You will need to have regular blood tests

Before you start taking eltrombopag, your doctor will do a blood test to check your blood cells, including your platelets. These tests will be repeated regularly while you are taking the medicine.

Blood tests to check your liver function

Eltrombopag may cause changes in your liver blood tests, including increased levels of liver enzymes, especially bilirubin and alanine/aspartate transaminase. If you are taking interferon-based treatments with eltrombopag to treat low platelet counts due to hepatitis C, some of your liver problems may get worse.

You will have blood tests before you start taking eltrombopag and regularly while you are taking it to check your liver function. You may need to stop taking eltrombopag if your liver blood test results get too high or if you have any other signs of liver damage.

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

Blood tests to check your platelet count

If you stop taking eltrombopag, it is likely that your platelet count will fall again within a few days. Your platelet count will be checked and your doctor will tell you what precautions to take.

Very high platelet counts can increase the risk of blood clots. However, blood clots can also occur with normal or low platelet counts. Your doctor will adjust your dose of eltrombopag to make sure that your platelet count does not get too high.

Seek medical help immediatelyif you get any of the following 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 your stools.

Tests to examine your bone marrow

In people with bone marrow problems, medicines like eltrombopag may make these problems worse. Signs of changes in the bone marrow may appear as abnormal blood test results. Your doctor may also do tests to directly check your bone marrow while you are taking eltrombopag.

Review of bleeding in the gut

If you are taking interferon-based treatments with eltrombopag, you will be monitored for any signs of bleeding in your stomach or intestines after you stop taking this medicine.

Heart monitoring

Your doctor may consider it necessary to monitor your heart while you are taking eltrombopag and may do an electrocardiogram (ECG) test.

Older adults (65 years and over)
