| Protein Family | Organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family | ||||||||
| Protein Function |
Mediates the Na(+)-independent uptake of organic anions such as pravastatin, taurocholate, methotrexate, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, 17-beta-glucuronosyl estradiol, estrone sulfate, prostaglandin E2, thromboxane B2, leukotriene C3, leukotriene E4, thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Involved in the clearance of bile acids and organic anions from the liver.

| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Lower statin dosages should be considered during coadministration with eltrombopag. In clinical trials with eltrombopag, a dosage reduction of rosuvastatin by 50% was recommended. No specific adjustment recommendations were given for the others. All patients receiving statin therapy should be advised to promptly report any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness or weakness, particularly if accompanied by fever, malaise and/or dark colored urine. Therapy should be discontinued if creatine kinase is markedly elevated in the absence of strenuous exercise or if myopathy is otherwise suspected or diagnosed. | ||||||||
