In rare instances, Nityr can cause more serious side effects. These can include:

Insufficient restriction of tyrosine and phenylalanine intake can cause an increase in plasma tyrosine. Levels above 500 micromol/L can cause intellectual disability and developmental delay or painful hyperkeratotic plaques. The dosage of Nityr should not be adjusted to lower the plasma tyrosine concentration. Conduct slit-lamp examination before treatment begins and re-examine if symptoms develop. Check plasma tyrosine levels in patients with a sudden change in neurologic status.

Your doctor will assess the benefits of using Nityr against your risk of side effects. Patients are encouraged to report negative side effects or adverse reactions of Nityr to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
