  • ITP since 2014. Retired nurse. My belief is empower patients to be involved as much as possible in their care. Read, read, read & ALWAYS question medics about the evidence base they use.

It should tell you on the patient information leaflet that comes in the box with the pills.www.us.promacta.com/globalassets/products17.com/promacta/pdfs/prm-1154241_meal_planner.pdf

Yes, it does. I end up fasting for 8 hours because it is restrictive. Was looking for advice or helpful tips on what other people eat while taking the medication

I eat perfectly normally all day until 6:30-7pm and have a light snack ie a couple of biscuits or a packet of crisps about 9pm then take my tablets about 11.15pm as I get into bed. That way I am fasting in my sleep.
