GET THE DOPTELET LIFT
Doptelet is a pill that helps your body make more platelets while you compromise less on your personal preferences. That means no doctor’s appointments for treatment injections, no restrictions on what you can eat and when, and more.
Reach new heights with a platelet count lift that lasts
In the 6-month clinical trial, Doptelet was shown to:
LIFT PLATELETS
Raise platelet counts to 50,000 per microliter or more.
And for some, raise platelet counts to 100,000 per microliter or more. Read more about the results from the clinical trial and follow up review of data below.
ACT FAST
Lift platelet counts in as few as 8 days.
AND LAST
Maintain an increase in platelet counts for an average of 12 total weeks.
- 49 people were in a 6-month clinical trial for Doptelet (clinical trials for a rare disease usually have smaller sample sizes than non-rare disease trials)
- During that time, people taking Doptelet were compared with people not taking Doptelet
- In the 6-month trial, those taking Doptelet were able to keep platelet counts at 50,000 platelets per microliter or higher for an average of 12 total weeks vs 0 weeks for those not taking Doptelet
- On Day 8 of the trial, 21 out of 32 people taking Doptelet reached at least 50,000 platelets per microliter or more. Those who were not taking Doptelet did not reach 50,000 platelets per microliter
- A follow-up review of the data from the clinical trial showed that 26 out of 32 patients reached at least 100,000 platelets per microliter at some point during the 6-month trial. The clinical trial was not designed to specifically measure if platelet counts reached 100,000 per microliter. Researchers identified this data in a follow-up review of the clinical trial results. Because this data was reviewed after the clinical trial, it is important to know these results might not be reliable in future clinical trials
What makes Doptelet different?
Doptelet helps make treating chronic ITP more predictable by working with your body
to make more platelets with less compromises.
Fits your schedule
You can choose when to take Doptelet, as long as it’s at the same time each day.
No treatment injections or infusions
Doptelet isn’t a steroid or immunosuppressant—it’s a thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA) pill that can be taken anywhere.
No food-type restrictions
Doptelet is a TPO-RA that allows you to eat any food you want, at anytime, without impacting the effectiveness of your treatment. With Doptelet, you can have dairy before bed and don’t need to be up at 5 AM to enjoy a bowl of cereal for breakfast. It‘s totally up to you!
No additional risk of liver damage
Doptelet doesn’t require additional liver-function monitoring because in clinical trials it was not shown to lead to liver damage (or “hepatotoxicity,” in medical terms).
No eye exams
Doptelet can be used in people with cataracts. No eye exams are required before starting and during treatment with Doptelet.

How do I take Doptelet?

long, based on how your platelet count responds.
