Frequently asked questions about Romy Products
Frequently asked questions about Romiplostim
Q. What is Romy Injection used for?
Romy Injection is used to raise low platelet counts in adults and in children one year and older with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who did not respond enough to treatments like steroids, immunoglobulins, or spleen removal. It is also used once to improve survival after high‑dose radiation exposure (acute radiation syndrome).
Q. Is Romy Injection used to make platelet counts normal?
No, the goal is to keep platelets around 50,000 per microliter to reduce bleeding risk. Romy Injection should not be used to “normalize” platelet counts because very high platelet levels can increase the risk of blood clots.
Q. Who should not receive Romy Injection?
There are no listed absolute contraindications of the Romy Injection, but it must not be used for low platelets due to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or causes other than immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and clinicians will evaluate risks in people with active serious clots or liver disease due to clot risks.
Q. Can Romy Injection stop working suddenly?
Yes, in some people, Romy Injection may stop working due to the development of neutralizing antibodies or other factors. If platelet counts don’t improve after four weeks at the highest dose, treatment is usually stopped and other causes for low platelets are investigated.
Q. What are the serious side effects of Romy Injection?
Serious side effects of Romy Injection include signs of blood clots (leg swelling/pain, chest pain, sudden breathlessness, sudden weakness, trouble speaking, severe headache), heavy bleeding or new bruising, severe belly pain (possible portal vein thrombosis), or severe allergic reactions (swelling, hives, breathing trouble). Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these symptoms.
Q. How often are blood tests required during and after Romy Injection treatment?
Weekly platelet counts and complete blood counts are needed while the Romy Injection dose is being adjusted, then monthly once platelet count stabilizes. After stopping this medicine, weekly platelet counts are needed for at least two weeks because platelets can drop below previous levels (“rebound”).
Q. Does liver disease change the risks with Romy Injection?
Portal vein thrombosis (a clot in a liver vein) has been reported in people with or without chronic liver disease who are receiving Romy Injection. Clinicians weigh risks carefully in liver disease and avoid targeting normal platelet counts.
