Glytactin EfficiEncy in Non or Insufficiently Treated Adult PHENylketonuria Patients

Phenylketonuria is the most common inherited metabolic disease in France and is screened for neonatal exposure. Management consists of a strict and restrictive hypoproteic diet and the intake of amino acid substitutes and dietary supplements free of phenylalanine.One of the major difficulties, which is the source of many treatment failures, is the inappetence of the amino acid supplements required during a strict hypoproteic diet. New formulations, Glycomacropeptides (GMP), have recently appeared and are considered more palatable than conventional amino acid mixtures.
