Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's

Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's belongs to the class of 'platelet-stimulating agents' primarily used to treat low blood platelet count in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's is also used to treat severe aplastic anaemia (SAA) in adults. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is an immune condition associated with low levels of platelets. Hepatitis C is an infection and inflammation of the liver caused due to hepatitis C virus. Severe aplastic anaemia is a condition in which the bone marrow doesn't make enough blood cells.

Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's contains 'Eltrombopag' which belongs to the class of 'thrombopoietin receptor agonists'. Thrombopoietin is a glycoprotein hormone that stimulates the formation of megakaryocytes (large bone marrow cells) and further regulates platelet's production. Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's works by increasing these large bone marrow cells responsible for the production of platelets. Thus, Rompag 50 mg Tablet 7's helps increase these bone marrow cells, thereby stimulating the number of platelets, which further lowers the risk of bleeding.
