Promacta (eltrombopag) is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist that stimulates bone marrow to produce more platelets. It’s FDA-approved to treat:
QuickRx Specialty Pharmacy dispenses both brand-name Promacta and its FDA-approved generic version, eltrombopag, depending on your insurance coverage and preference.
Promacta (eltrombopag) works by binding to and activating the thrombopoietin receptor in bone marrow cells. This stimulates the production and differentiation of megakaryocytes (large cells in the bone marrow), which leads to increased platelet production. Unlike some other treatments that simply prevent platelet destruction, Promacta/eltrombopag addresses the problem by helping your body make more platelets.
Eltrombopag is the generic version of Promacta. They contain the same active ingredient and work in the same way in your body. The main differences are:
Both medications are equally effective when taken as prescribed. QuickRx offers both options to meet your specific needs.
For optimal effectiveness, follow these important guidelines:
