What is Xuriden?

Xuriden is manufactured by Wellstat Therapeutics Corporation. It is a pyrimidine analog with FDA approval (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) for uridine replacement for the treatment of hereditary orotic aciduria.

Hereditary orotic aciduria is caused by a defective enzyme resulting in the body not being able to produce uridine, needed for the production of ribonucleic acid (RNA). Symptoms include developmental delay, hematologic abnormalities such as anemia (low red blood cells), and excess excretion of orotic acid in the urine.

What doses of Xuriden are available?

Xuriden is available as oral granules for oral administration, in the following doses: 2-gram packets.

The starting dosage is 60 mg/kg once daily; the dose may be increased for insufficient efficacy. Take it with soft food (applesauce, pudding, or yogurt) or in milk or infant formula.

See the full prescribing information and always speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
