About KALYDECO
KALYDECO is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient ivacaftor, used to treat certain cystic fibrosis patients with specific genetic mutations. It is designed to work by increasing the function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, helping to improve lung function and reduce symptoms associated with cystic fibrosis.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of cystic fibrosis in patients with the G551D mutation in the CFTR gene
- Improvement in lung function and reduction in sweat chloride levels
- Reduction in frequency of pulmonary exacerbations
Active Ingredient & Action
Ivacaftor, the active ingredient in KALYDECO, is a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) potentiator. It works by binding to the CFTR protein and increasing its function, allowing more chloride ions to pass through the cell membrane and into the airway surface liquid. This helps to thin mucus, making it easier to expel and reducing the risk of pulmonary exacerbations.
Important Notes
KALYDECO is not indicated for the treatment of cystic fibrosis in patients with a different genetic mutation or for patients without a confirmed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional before starting treatment with KALYDECO. Patients should follow the recommended dosage and usage instructions provided by their healthcare provider to ensure safe and effective treatment.
