What is the average lifespan, prognosis for systemic amyloidosis??
I wonder if at the heart of it, this is a political issue and has anything to do with the Orphan Drug laws. Before these laws were in place, drugs were often not developed for conditions that occurred relatively low in the population, due to low profitability for the drug companies. As I understand it, under the Orphan Drug laws, these companies are now eligible for incentives to develop drugs which might not otherwise be developed.
Arrowhead’s candidate for AAT deficiency has been designated as an orphan drug. Had you done that with previous candidates?
CA: This is the first time for us, and it’s important. This is a clear orphan population; it’s thought there’s about 100,000 potential patients in the U.S., and a similar portion in Europe. Orphan designation is going to help us not only with speed to approval, hopefully, but also will help us with communication to the FDA.
Infectious myocarditis is relatively rare, and it is very startling when it occurs, maybe especially in young people (but older folks are pretty darned shocked, too). Each case is individual, and unfortunately we are only patients like you--not doctors. You simply must write down your questions and concerns in an organized way and *ask* your doctors, who know your history and have examined and treated you, about this. Keep at them until you get answers that mostly satisfy you.
We are looking forward to further investigate this novel drug for treatment of the most severe viral hepatitis,” said Heiner Wedemeyer, MD, Professor at Hannover Medical School and Chairman of MYR`s Clinical Advisory Board. “Myrcludex B has shown biological activity in the previuos trials and has the potential to become a new option for these difficult-to-treat patients.
Hi my friends and I found a baby mouse that is about 2-3 weeks old and no adults know. Its mother was found and possibly killed so now it is an orphan. I an in an elementary and we don't want it to die. Could you recommend us something. We don't want to show it to the adults because we are afraid that they will kill it and it is still very young.

I took Tofranil (the brand name med) 100 mg for panic disorder from 1994 to 2004 and always responded well to it. I was switched to Lexapro in 2004, due to wanting to attempt a pregnancy. I took the Lexapro for 5-6 years, but it eventually became ineffective at blocking my panic.
The doctor switched me back to Imipramine (because Tofranil brand name is so expensive) and since I've begun taking it I notice many side effects I never experienced while taking the brand name med.

Mexico City (CNN) -- A 14-year-old accused of ruthless killings on behalf of a Mexican drug cartel boss faced a battery of questions from reporters after authorities detained him. And he answered, point-blank, as camera flash bulbs flickered.
"I slit their throats," he said, describing what he said was the killing of four people.
The teen told reporters after his capture Thursday night that he was an orphan who joined the Pacifico Sur drug cartel when he was 12.
