WHAT CERDELGA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Cerdelga contains the active substance eliglustat and is used for the
long term treatment of adult
patients with Gaucher disease type 1.
Gaucher disease type 1 is a rare, inherited condition in which a
substance called glucosylceramide is
not effectively broken down by your body. As a result glucosylceramide
builds up in your spleen, liver
and bones. The build-up prevents these organs from working properly.
Cerdelga contains the active
substance eliglustat which decreases the production of
glucosylceramide, thereby preventing its build-
up. In turn this helps your affected organs to work better.
People differ in the speed that their body breaks down this medicine.
As a result the amount of this
medicine in the blood can differ between patients which could affect
how a patient would respond.
Cerdelga is meant to be used in patients whose body breaks down this
