"I am taking Promacta since 2020 from number 5, slowly moved to 239, the highest. Of course, the numbers all the time are different, but at least Promacta 75 mg keeps my platelet levels in good shape."

"I have intermediate-risk secondary MDS, but the doctor has prescribed 15 mg Promacta due to chronic low platelet count. After approximately 2 months, I still need platelet transfusions once or twice a week."
