So, Mavacamten is this medicine that’s supposed to help with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It’s a condition where your heart muscle gets way too thick. The main idea is to make the heart muscle not contract as strongly.
Mavacamten comes in capsule form and you can get it in strengths of 2.5, 5, 10, or 15 mg. They usually start with a 5 mg dose, once a day, but your doctor might change it if needed. These come in bottles with 30 capsules each.
It works by blocking something called cardiac myosin ATPase activity. This reduces the energy that helps the muscle contract, which can make the heart feel better. You got to listen to what your doctor says about the dose, and make sure you’re watched for any side effects.
And remember, your safety and how well it’s working should be checked all the time during treatment.
