A member asked:
For those metabolic drs. out there, what would be your standard protocol for glutaric aciduria type 1? meds? formula type? vaccination schedule? etc.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Special diet, etc...: For metabolic disorders, the genetics specialists at a children's hospital is the best source of help. The site http://www.Newbornscreening.Info/parents/organicaciddisorders/ga1.Html#4 has good info on glutaric aciduria treatment. One goal is to avoid infections, which would make a baby not eat and get internal stress (metabolic crisis occurs, leading to more brain damage). So, vaccines are good.
