Is there a treatment for tyrosinemia type 2?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet: A deficiency of tyrosine amino transferase causes type 2 tyrosinemia. Newborn screening allows for early detection though results have to be confirmed by a physician specializing in genetic metabolic disease. Treatment includes avoiding tyrosine and phenylalanine in the diet. Special formula is prescribed by the treating centers for babies.
