So, Mavacamten is this special medicine made just for treating a specific heart condition called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It does its thing by keeping something called cardiac myosin in check, which in turn makes the heart less strong. This reduction in the heart’s strength is mainly what helps ease the symptoms of the condition.
You can get this drug in form and it comes in different strengths—2.5, 5, 10, and 15 milligrams. The doc usually recommends taking 5 mg once a day, but they might change that depending on what they think is best for you. Each bottle of Mavacamten capsules holds 30 capsules.
It’s enough for a month’s worth if you take it 5 mg every day.
