What is Endari?
Endari (L-glutamine oral powder) is a prescription medication used to reduce the frequency of acute complications in adults and children five years and older with sickle cell disease. It is classified as an amino acid and is considered a medical food product. Medical foods are intended for the dietary management of a disease or condition for which distinctive nutritional requirements, based on recognized scientific principles, are established by medical evaluation. Unlike standard pharmaceuticals, medical foods are not subject to the same premarket approval requirements by the FDA. Because Endari can interact with other medications or medical conditions, it is crucial to inform your healthcare provider about all prescription and over-the-counter drugs, supplements, and vitamins you take, as well as your complete medical history. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before making any changes to your medication regimen.
