Anagrelide is a drug that helps lower platelet counts. It’s used to treat a condition called essential thrombocythemia, which it does by stopping the growth of a certain type of cell called megakaryocytes. The capsules are 0.5 mg each.
The usual dose is one capsule four times a day, but you can take it more often if you need to. The amount you take depends on how you’re doing. These capsules come in bottles with 100 in each.
It works by slowing down the making of megakaryocytes, which are the cells in your bone marrow that make platelets. By doing this, it lowers the number of platelets in people with essential thrombocythemia, which in turn helps stop blood clots from forming. You’ll need to have your blood checked often while taking this stuff.
