Overview
TTP is a medical emergency and requires prompt treatment. The mainstay of treatment for TTP is plasma exchange therapy. Surgery is recommended among all patients who develop TTP with no responsr to medical therapy.
Medical Therapy
- Patients with TTP are treated with daily plasma therapy.[1]
- Patients with TTP are treated with rituximab to prevent complications.[1]
- Vincristine (VCR) is a agent to treat TTP patients resistant to conventional plasma exchange (PEX) and pharmacologic therapy.[2]
- Cyclosporine A [3]
TTP treatment
- Plasma therapy
- Steroids
- Treatment of acquired TTP is high dose methylprednisolone
- Methylprednisolone (10 mg/kg/day for 3 days and then 2.5 mg/kg/day), this dose is more efficacious than standard dose (1 mg/kg/day)
- Treatment of acquired TTP is high dose methylprednisolone
- Rituximab
