Inotersen works by decreasing a protein called transthyretin (TTR, made primarily in the liver). Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR) is a rare condition in which abnormal deposits of TTR protein build up in many parts of the body, interfering with normal function.

Inotersen is used to treat polyneuropathy (damage of multiple nerves throughout the body) in adults with hATTR. inotersen can help reduce symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, abnormal heartbeats, diarrhea, constipation, weakness, and problems with movement in your arms or legs.

Inotersen is available only from a certified pharmacy under a special program.
