ETP Tablet contains Eltrombopag Olamine 25 mg, an oral thrombopoietin receptor agonist used to increase platelet production in patients with thrombocytopenia (low platelet count). It is commonly used when platelet levels are insufficient due to immune disorders, bone marrow failure, or other medical conditions.

Eltrombopag works by stimulating the bone marrow to produce more platelets, helping reduce the risk of bleeding and improving blood clotting function. It is used under strict medical supervision with regular monitoring of platelet counts.
