How to buy genuine fotantinib/fotantinib medicines

The original drug Fostamatinib has not yet been officially launched in China, so domestic patients who need to use the drug mainly rely on overseas legal channels. Genuine fostatinib is usually sold under the trade names of Tavalisse and Tavlesse in the international market. Common specifications include 100 mg × 60 tablets and 150 mg × 60 tablets, which comply with overseas prescription drug management requirements. Since it has not been included in the domestic medical insurance system, its price and reimbursement policy are temporarily unclear in China. This is also a common concern of many patients before taking the medicine.

Judging from the overseas market situation, the original research version of fostatinib is already on the market in the United States, Europe and other countries and regions. The price is usually higher. Affected by exchange rates, procurement channels and supply cycles, the overall cost fluctuates to a certain extent. It is important to note that as of now, there is no widely recognized generic version of fostatinib on the international mainstream market, which means that the price advantage is not obvious and further highlights the importance of choosing formal channels.

In actual practice, patients or their families with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) should give priority to obtaining drugs through legally qualified cross-border medical service institutions, overseas pharmacies or hospital channels. Such channels can usually provide clear drug source information, original packaging and batch numbers, reducing purchase risks. For online platforms or personal channels, you need to be extra cautious to avoid purchasing products from unknown sources or with hidden quality problems due to price temptation.

In addition, before purchasing fostatinib, patients are advised to fully communicate with their hematologist to clarify the indications, dosage regimen and follow-up plan. Even if the drug is successfully obtained, subsequent safety monitoring cannot be ignored, including regular assessment of blood pressure, liver function and overall tolerance. Overseas drug use experience has repeatedly emphasized that standardized drug use and formal channels are equally important, and both are indispensable.
