Information about AMAGREE (vamorolone):
AMAGREE (vamorolone) is used to reduce inflammation and modify immune responses. It is particularly employed in the management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness.
Vamorolone functions similarly to corticosteroids but with potentially fewer side effects, making it a promising alternative in managing DMD symptoms.
Product Highlights
- AMAGREE (vamorolone) stands out due to its novel mechanism of action compared to traditional corticosteroids.
- It acts as a selective glucocorticoid receptor agonist, which means it targets specific receptors involved in inflammation without fully activating them.
- Potentially reducing adverse effects commonly associated with traditional steroids.
- AMAGREE (vamorolone) in patients 2 years of age and older.
