WHAT CEREZYME IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Cerezyme contains the active substance imiglucerase and is used to
treat patients who have a
confirmed diagnosis of Type I or Type 3 Gaucher disease, who show
signs of the disease such as:
anaemia (low number of red blood cells), a tendency to bleed easily
(due to low numbers of platelets –
a type of blood cell), spleen or liver enlargement or bone disease.
People with Gaucher disease have low levels of an enzyme called acid

-glucosidase. This enzyme
helps the body control levels of glucosylceramide. Glucosylceramide is
a natural substance in the
body, made of sugar and fat
_._
In Gaucher disease glucosylceramide levels can get too high.
Cerezyme is an artificial enzyme called imiglucerase - this can
replace the natural enzyme acid

-glucosidase which is lacking or not active enough in patients with
Gaucher disease.
The information in this leaflet applies to all patient groups
including children, adolescents, adults and
the elderly.
