Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's
About Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's
Trombonat 50 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. Trombonat 50 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.
Trombonat 50 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. Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's works by increasing these large bone marrow cells responsible for the production of platelets. Thus, Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's helps increase these bone marrow cells, thereby stimulating the number of platelets, which further lowers the risk of bleeding.

Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's works by increasing megakaryocytes, the large bone marrow cells responsible for the production of platelets. The increase in these bone marrow cells stimulates the production of platelets. Thus Trombonat 50 Tablet 7's prevents bleeding episodes by increasing the number of platelets in the blood.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Immune (idiopathic) thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP): It is an immune condition associated with low levels of platelets, and the blood doesn't clot normally. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks its own platelets. ITP also occurs in children, followed by a viral infection. Symptoms of ITP may include easy bruising, bleeding from gums and nose, blood in urine and stools, heavy menstrual flow and pinpoint-sized reddish-purple spots on the lower legs.
Hepatitis C: It is an infection and inflammation of the liver caused due to hepatitis C virus. This virus can cause both acute and chronic hepatitis. Acute hepatitis C is a short term illness that may range for six months. Chronic hepatitis C is a long-lasting disease that may lead to other severe liver cancer problems or cirrhosis (inflammation of the liver). Symptoms of hepatitis C include fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite and yellowing of the eyes and skin.
Severe aplastic anaemia (SAA): Aplastic anaemia is also called bone marrow aplasia. It is a condition in which the bone marrow doesn't make enough blood cells. SAA is commonly caused due to the damage of bone marrow. This damage can be a congenital disability or may occur because of radiation, chemotherapy, toxic chemicals, certain drugs and infections. Symptoms of SAA include fatigue, frequent infections, rapid heart rate and bleeding.
