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

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

Eltrombopag is used to treat a blood disorder called primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in patients aged 1 year and older who have already taken other medicines (corticosteroids or immunoglobulins) that have not worked.

ITP is caused by a low platelet count in the blood (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 they cut or injure themselves.

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 side effects during treatment with interferon. Many people with hepatitis C have low platelet counts, not only as a result of the disease but also due to some of the antiviral medicines used to treat it. Taking eltrombopag may help you complete a full course of antiviral medicine (peginterferon and ribavirin).

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

Do not takeEltrombopag Zentiva

• if you are allergic to eltrombopag or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6),

Talk to your doctor if you think this may apply to you.

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you start taking eltrombopag:

• if you have liver problems. People who have low platelet counts and advanced chronic liver disease are at a higher risk of side effects, including potentially life-threatening liver damage and blood clots. If your doctor thinks that the benefits of taking this medicine outweigh the risks, you will be closely monitored during treatment.
• if you are at risk of getting a blood clot in your veins or arteries, or if you know that blood clots are a common problem in your family.

The risk of getting a blood clot may be higher in 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 have been physically injured
• if you are very overweight (obese)
• if you smoke
• if you have advanced chronic liver disease.

If any of these apply to you, tell your doctor before you start treatment. You must not take eltrombopag unless your doctor thinks that the expected benefit is greater than the risk of blood clots.

• if you have cataracts (the lens in the eye becomes cloudy)
• if you have another blood disorder, such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Your doctor will do tests to check that you do not have this blood disorder before you start taking eltrombopag. If you have MDS and take this medicine, your MDS may get worse.

Tell your doctor if any of these situations apply to you.

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 arrange for you to have regular checks. You may also be checked for any bleeding in or around the retina (the layer of light-sensitive cells at the back of the eye).

You will need to have regular blood tests

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

Blood tests to check your liver

Eltrombopag may cause changes in your blood test results that can be signs of liver damage: an increase in some liver enzymes, especially bilirubin and alanine/aspartate transaminases. 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 to check your liver before you start taking eltrombopag and frequently while you are taking it. You may need to stop taking eltrombopag if the levels of these markers increase too much or if you get 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 back to its previous level within a few days. Your platelet levels 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 even 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 immediately if you get any of the following signs of a blood clot:

• swelling, pain, or tenderness in one leg
• sudden difficulty breathing, especially if this is with sharp chest pain or rapid breathing
• abdominal (stomach) pain, a swollen abdomen, blood in your stools.

Tests to examine your bone marrow

In people who have problems with their bone marrow, 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.

Checking for bleeding in the gut

If you are taking interferon-based treatments with eltrombopag, you will be monitored for any signs of bleeding in the 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.

Elderly (65 years and over)

There is limited information on the use of eltrombopag in patients aged 65 years and over. Caution should be used when taking eltrombopag if you are 65 years or older.

Children and adolescents

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

Other medicines and Eltrombopag Zentiva

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. This includes medicines that you buy without a prescription and herbal medicines.

Some common medicines may interact with eltrombopag, including prescription and non-prescription medicines and minerals. These include:

• antacids for indigestion, heartburn, or stomach ulcers (see also “When to take it” in section 3)
• statins to lower cholesterol
• certain medicines to treat HIV infection, such as lopinavir and/or ritonavir
• ciclosporin used in transplants or immune system diseases
• minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, selenium, and zinc that may be found in vitamin and mineral supplements (see also “When to take it” in section 3)
• medicines such as methotrexate and topotecan to treat cancer.

Talk to your doctor if you are taking any of these medicines. Some of them must not be taken with eltrombopag, or it may be necessary to adjust the dose or the time at which you take them. Your doctor will review the medicines that you are taking and suggest alternative medicines 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 azathioprine, you may need to take a lower dose or stop taking them while you are taking eltrombopag.

Taking Eltrombopag Zentiva with food and drink

Do not take eltrombopag with dairy foods or drinks, as the calcium in these foods affects the absorption of the medicine. For more information, see “When to take it” in section 3.

4. Possible Adverse Effects

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

Symptoms that require attention: consult a doctor

People taking eltrombopag for ITP or for a low platelet count due to hepatitis C may develop signs related to potentially serious adverse effects. It is essential to inform a doctor if these symptoms occur.

Increased risk of thrombosis

Some people may have an increased risk of suffering from thrombosis, and medications like eltrombopag could worsen this problem. The sudden blockage of a blood vessel by a thrombus is a rare adverse effect and can affect up to 1 in 100 people.

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs and symptoms of a thrombus, such as:

• swelling, pain, heat, redness, or sensitivity in one leg
• sudden difficulty breathing, especially when accompanied by acute chest pain or rapid breathing
