    Is Idebenone Effective for Treating Friedreich’s Ataxia?

    Posted by FA Forums Moderator on April 16, 2019 at 8:16 am

    Despite some benefits seen in clinical measures like cardiac health and reports by Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) patients of lesser fatigue and better function upon treatment with idebenone in clinical trials, a new two-month study found little difference between those given the therapy and those on placebo.

    The study, “Patient‐reported outcomes in Friedreich’s ataxia after withdrawal from idebenone,” appeared in the journal Acta Neurologica Scandinavica. Read more about this study here.
