Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 07/16/2018 --Classic PKU is the most severe form of phenylketonuria disorder. A newborn with classic PKU appears normal for the first few months. If the newborn is not treated for phenylketonuria in time, it can develop symptoms such as seizures, tremors, or trembling and shaking, stunted growth, hyperactivity, skin conditions, and etc. The other form of phenylketonuria is known as non-PKU hyperphenylalaninemia, which occurs when an infant has higher levels of phenylalanine in the body. Non-PKU hyperphenylalaninemia disorder can have mild symptoms, but in order to prevent intellectual disabilities they need to follow a special diet to prevent disabilities.

Phenylketonuria condition is uncommon in the U.S., affecting about 1 in 10,000 to 15,000 newborns every year. The severity of phenylketonuria is rare in the U.S., due the early screening and availability of optimized treatment soon after birth. Phenylketonuria can lead to permanent brain damage and intellectual disabilities within the first few months after the birth and in time lead to behavioral problems among older children. A screening test is performed when an infant is one to two days old and still in hospital. The doctor uses a needle to collect few drops of blood sample from the infant’s heel to run the test for phenylketonuria and other genetic disorders. According to the U.S. FDA, recently approved sapropterin can be used for the treatment of phenylketonuria. Sapropterin helps to lower phenylalanine levels in the body. The medication must be used in combination with a special phenylketonuria meal plan.
