MFDS ingredient code M267107
Miglustat hydrochloride is a drug ingredient used for the treatment of Fabry disease, a rare genetic disorder. This ingredient improves enzyme function and helps alleviate metabolic disorders. It mainly acts as an enzymatic activity enhancer.
Miglustat hydrochloride binds to the defective alpha-galactosidase A enzyme, stabilizing its structure. As a result, the enzyme can function properly, promoting the breakdown of abnormal substances accumulated in the body. Consequently, it helps alleviate symptoms of Fabry disease.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike enzyme replacement therapy, miglustat hydrochloride can be taken orally and has a mechanism that directly assists enzymatic activity. This is a distinguishing feature from existing therapies, known to be a personalized treatment that responds to specific genetic mutations.
