Promacta

Hi Rose,
PromactaCares.com can help you. This link describes the program
http://www.promactacares.com/dispense.html#p_1

Promacta is not approved for MDS, but it can be tried using the special program. A trial of Promacta for MDS patients is being planned but has not started yet.
You can call Promacta Cares to get information on how you might get it under a special arrangement.

Hope this helps.
