Abstract
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) presents challenges in management, particularly in cases refractory to corticosteroids. Thrombopoietin receptor (TPO-R) agonists, such as eltrombopag, offer alternative therapeutic options. We report a case of a 72-year-old South Asian male with steroid-refractory chronic ITP who achieved a favorable response with biweekly eltrombopag dosing. Platelet response was comparable to daily dosing, suggesting the efficacy of less frequent administration schedules. This approach may enhance patient adherence and reduce treatment-related financial burdens. Biweekly eltrombopag dosing presents a promising alternative for chronic ITP management, warranting further investigation.
