How it is used
Miglustat Dipharma is available in the form of 100 mg capsules to be taken by mouth. The recommended starting dose for type-1 Gaucher disease is one capsule three times a day. For Niemann-Pick type-C disease, it is two capsules three times a day for patients aged 12 years and over; in younger patients, the dose depends on their weight and height. Miglustat Dipharma is intended for long-term use. The medicine can only be obtained with a prescription and treatment should be supervised by doctors who are experienced in the management of Gaucher disease.
How it works
The active substance in Miglustat Dipharma, miglustat, blocks an enzyme called glucosylceramide synthase. This enzyme is involved in the first step of the production of glucosylceramide. By preventing the enzyme from working, miglustat can reduce the production of glucosylceramide in cells, thereby reducing the symptoms of type-1 Gaucher disease.
