Determining the interaction of Lopinavir and Ritonavir Solution and Promacta (Eltrombopag Powder for Suspension) and the possibility of their joint administration.

A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.
Consumer:Lopinavir may reduce the blood levels of eltrombopag, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:MONITOR: Coadministration with lopinavir-ritonavir has been shown to modestly decrease the plasma concentrations of eltrombopag. In 40 healthy adult subjects, administration of a single 100 mg dose of eltrombopag following repeated dosing of lopinavir-ritonavir 400 mg-100 mg twice daily resulted in a 17% decrease in eltrombopag systemic exposure (AUC).
MANAGEMENT: No specific dosage adjustment is recommended when eltrombopag is used with lopinavir-ritonavir. However, platelet count should be more closely monitored following initiation or discontinuation of lopinavir-ritonavir therapy, and the eltrombopag dosage adjusted as necessary.
