Tavalisse treats adults with low platelet counts due to chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) when a prior treatment for ITP has not worked well enough.
Tavalisse Overview
Tavalisse is a prescription medication for adult patients with chronic ITP, a disorder in which the number of platelets circulating in the body is severely reduced, who have had an insufficient response to a previous treatment. Tavalisse belongs to a group of drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Tavalisse reduces the destruction of platelets by the body's immune system by targeting an enzyme called SYK (spleen tyrosine kinase).
This medication comes in a tablet form and is taken twice daily, with or without food.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, and rash. Tavalisse can also cause dizziness, and fatigue. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how Tavalisse affects you.
