WHAT CHENODEOXYCHOLIC ACID LEADIANT IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Chenodeoxycholic acid Leadiant capsules contain a substance called
chenodeoxycholic acid. This
substance is normally produced by the liver from cholesterol. It is a
part of the bile, a fluid which helps
in the digestion of fat and vitamins from food. Patients with a rare
condition known as
cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) cannot produce chenodeoxycholic
acid and this causes a
build-up of fatty deposits in various areas of the body. This can
cause damage to the affected areas.
Chenodeoxycholic acid Leadiant capsules treats CTX by replacing the
chenodeoxycholic acid, which
prevents the build-up of the fatty deposits.
Chenodeoxycholic acid Leadiant capsules can be used from the age of
one month and patients with
CTX will require tre

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Chenodeoxycholic acid is indicated for the treatment of inborn errors
of primary bile acid synthesis
due to sterol 27-hydroxylase deficiency (presenting as
cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX)) in
infants, children and adolescents aged 1 month to 18 years and adults.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Treatment must be initiated and monitored by physicians experienced in
the management of CTX or
inborn errors of primary bile acid synthesis.
During the initiation of therapy and dose adjustment, serum
cholestanol levels and/or urine bile
alcohols should be monitored every 3 months till metabolic control and
then annually. The lowest dose
of chenodeoxycholic acid that effectively reduces the serum
cholestanol and/or urine bile alcohols
levels to within the normal range should be chosen. Liver function
should also be monitored.
Concurrent elevation of liver enzymes above normal levels may indicate
overdose. After the initiation
period, cholestanol, urine bile alcohols and liver function should be
determined annually, at a
minimum, and the dose adjusted accordingly (see section 4.4).
Additional or more frequent
investigations may need to be undertaken to monitor therapy during
periods of fast growth,
concomitant disease and pregnancy (see section 4.6).
In case of persistent lack of therap
