Description
Doptelet (avatrombopag) is a medication available in the form of 20 mg film-coated tablets. It is primarily used to treat thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) in patients with chronic liver disease who are scheduled to undergo a medical or dental procedure. Doptelet works by stimulating the production of platelets in the bone marrow.
How It Works
Doptelet contains avatrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist. It works by mimicking the action of thrombopoietin, a natural hormone that regulates the production of platelets. By binding to thrombopoietin receptors on the surface of megakaryocytes (the cells in the bone marrow that produce platelets), Doptelet stimulates the production and release of platelets into the bloodstream. This increase in platelet count helps to reduce the risk of bleeding and allows for safer medical or dental procedures.Side Effects
