Nplate does that. Just up the dose and off you go again. I just threw away, yesterday, the Nplate vials I had left from when I used it. I was keeping them just in case, but I noticed they were now out of date which shows how long I'd had them without needing to use it any more. It must be two years since I needed any treatment. Hope you get to that stage too.
