Uses
SULFZIX is indicated for the clinical dietary management of the metabolic processes of certain individuals with chronic hydrogen sulfide insufficiency that cannot be corrected through diet alone, with a particular emphasis in persons who have inborn errors of cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), cystathione gamma-lyase (CSE), and/or 3-mercaptopyruvatesulfurtransferase (3-MST). Clinical dietary management in patients who, as a result of a condition or disease, have limited or impaired capacity to ingest, digest, absorb, or metabolize ordinary foodstuffs or certain nutrients associated with endogenous hydrogen sulfide biochemistry, with a particular emphasis in patients with heart failure and chronic wounds.1-6 Must be used under licensed medical supervision.
In patients with suboptimal hydrogen sulfide levels, and as determined by your licensed medical practitioner, SULFZIX may be administered as rescue or adjunctive nutritional therapy to address the risk of suboptimal hydrogen sulfide which can lead to oxidative stress, inflammatory, and/or vascular complications.1-4 The adjunctive use of SULFZIX enables medical practitioners to combine therapeutic modalities (dietary management and drug therapy).1
