1. WHAT IS THE MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
Nityr tablets is given to treat a hereditary disease called
tyrosinemia type 1. In this disease, your body is unable to
completely break down the amino acid tyrosine )amino acids
are building blocks that build the proteins in our body(, resulting
in the body accumulating a substance that is harmful to it. Nityr
tablets prevent the breakdown of the amino acid tyrosine in
the first place, and as a result, the harmful substance does not
accumulate in your body.
Because tyrosine remains in the body, a special dietary regimen
based on foods with low amounts of tyrosine and phenylalanine
should be maintained during treatment with Nityr tablets.
THERAPEUTIC GROUP: treatment of essential metabolic system
defects.

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
NITYR tablets treatment should be initiated and supervised by a
physician experienced in the
treatment of HT-1 patients.
Posology
Treatment of all genotypes of the disease should be initiated as early
as possible to increase
overall survival and avoid complications such as liver failure, liver
cancer and renal disease.
Adjunct to the NITYR tablets treatment, a diet deficient in
phenylalanine and tyrosine is required
and should be followed by monitoring of plasma amino acids (see
sections 4.4 and 4.8)
The recommended initial dose in the pediatric and adult population is
1mg/kg body weight
administered orally. The dose of NITYR tablets should be adjusted
individually. It is
recommended to administer the dose once daily. However, due to the
limited data in
patients with body weight <20 kg, it is recommended to divide the
total daily dose into two
daily administrations in this patient population.
_Dose adjustment_
During regular monitoring, it is appropriate to follow urine
succinylacetone, liver function test
values and alpha-fetoprotein levels (see section 4.4). If urine
succinylacetone is still detectable
one month after the start of NITYR tablets treatment, the NITYR
tablets dose should be
increased to 1.5 mg/kg body weight/day divided in 2 doses. A dose of 2
mg/kg body weight/day
may be needed based on the evalua
