Information
Nitisinone is used to treat certain inherited disorders (alkaptonuria or hereditary tyrosinemia type 1, also known as HT-1). Both conditions are caused by a shortage of certain natural substances that are needed to break down a nutrient (tyrosine) found in food. This effect causes a build-up of too much tyrosine and related substances in the body. Nitisinone works by helping to prevent the formation and build-up of several toxic substances that cause damage to the liver, kidneys, joints, and nervous system. For the treatment of HT-1, this medication must be used along with a diet low in protein, tyrosine, and phenylalanine. Different brands of this medication have different uses. Do not change brands of this medication unless directed by your doctor.
