Methylmalonic Acidemia
Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) is a genetic disorder that disrupts the body's ability to process certain fats and proteins, resulting in a high level of acid in the blood and body tissues. The condition is treatable, and early screening is important for preventing harmful effects like developmental delays and even seizures.
This disorder affects infants as early as the first few months of life, but onset can also occur throughout childhood. Classic symptoms of MMA are poor feeding, excessive tiredness, dehydration, developmental delay and seizures. Newborns can be diagnosed with the condition through expanded newborn blood screening as well as urine and skin tests.
The standard treatment includes adhering to a diet low in certain proteins and fats and taking medical foods and supplements. It is important to note that even with early treatment, those with MMA may still have learning difficulties and intellectual disability.
ZOIA Pharma, a Pentec company – the only medical food provider in the U.S. exclusively focused on supporting the rare disease community, including individuals living with MMA – understands that the more appropriate nutrition options are available to people with inherited metabolic disorders, the more opportunities they have to stay healthy. That’s why we supply a broad range of specialized nutrition products and nutritional management services to empower patients and their families on the journey toward better health and well-being.
