It may harm them, even if it seems to you that their illness is similar to yours. 1. What is this medicine intended for? Carglumic Acid Waymade 200 mg is used to treat hyperammonaemia (high levels of ammonia in the plasma) due to: • the lack of a liver enzyme called N-acetylglutamate synthase. Patients with this rare disease are not able to eliminate nitrogen, a waste substance that builds up in their body after eating protein. This medical condition persists throughout the life of the affected patient, and therefore requires lifelong treatment. • certain acidosis conditions (propionic acidaemia, isovaleric acidaemia, methylmalonic acidaemia); patients with any of these disorders must be treated during the hyperammonaemia stages of their disease. Therapeutic group: CPS (carbamoyl phosphate synthase) activator Carglumic Acid Waymade 200 mg can help to eliminate excess ammonia from the blood. When ammonia builds up in the blood it is especially toxic for the brain. In severe cases, build-up can lead to reduced consciousness and to coma. 2. Before using this medicine Do not use this medicine if: • you are sensitive (allergic) to the active ingredient carglumic acid or to any of the other ingredients in this medicine (see section 6) • you are breast-feeding Special warnings abo Przeczytaj cały dokument
