Description
Nitisinone 2 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg capsule is generically available under the brand Lasinone. It is also available as a trade name drug under the brand Orfadin among others. Nitisinone Capsule is used for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients (in any age range) with a confirmed diagnosis of HT-1 (Hereditary tyrosinemia type-1 or Tyrosinemia type-1) in conjunction with dietary restriction of phenylalanine and tyrosine.
HT-1 is a condition in which the body can’t break down a substance called tyrosine properly, which can build up and cause serious health problems. Nitisinone Capsule helps to block an enzyme in the body that’s involved in making harmful substances from tyrosine. By blocking this enzyme, nitisinone helps to reduce the levels of these harmful substances in the body, which can prevent damage to the liver, kidneys, and other organs.
Nitisinone Capsule is currently approved in dosage strengths of 2 mg, 5 mg, and 10 mg. The dosage of Nitisinone is usually taken as a capsule by mouth, once a day. It’s crucial to take the dosage at the same time each day as per doctor’s advice. While taking Nitisinone Capsule, a doctor will monitor the blood regularly to make sure the therapeutic drug is working well and to check for any potential side effects.
Dosage and Side Effects
Nitisinone capsule should be taken orally twice a day, at least 60 minutes before or 120 minutes after a meal, with a beginning dosage of 0.5 mg per kilogram. If, following at least four weeks on an astable dosage of Nitisinone capsule, patients aged five years and older had undetectable blood and urine succinylacetone concentrations, the entire daily dosage could be administered once daily (e.g., 1 mg/kg to 2 mg/kg once daily).Â
The dietary limitation of phenylalanine and tyrosine must be upheld. Nitisinone capsule dosages can be adjusted for each patient based on their unique reaction to treatment, both biochemically and clinically.
