WHAT ORLADEYO IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Orladeyo is a medicine that contains the active substance
berotralstat. It is used to
PREVENT
ANGIOEDEMA ATTACKS
in adults, and adolescents aged from 12 years with hereditary
angioedema.
WHAT HEREDITARY ANGIOEDEMA IS
Hereditary angioedema is a condition that often runs in families. It
can limit your daily activity by
causing attacks of swelling and pain in different parts of your body
including:
•
hands and feet
•
face, eyelids, lips or tongue
•
voice-box (larynx), which may make breathing difficult
•
genitals
•
stomach and intestines
HOW ORLADEYO WORKS
In hereditary angioedema your blood does not have enough of a protein
called C1 inhibitor, or the
protein does not work properly. This leads to too much of the enzyme
plasma kallikrein, which in turn
increases the levels of bradykinin in your bloodstream. Too much
bradykinin leads to symptoms of
heredi
