Mavacamten is this heart muscle thingy that doctors use to treat a kind of heart condition called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. And it’s been okayed by the bigwigs because it makes the heart muscles less stiff. You can get these in capsule form, from 2.5 mg to 15 mg, and they come in bottles with 30 capsules.
They usually start with 5 mg a day, and that can be changed if the person needs it. So the drug’s job is to calm down the heart muscles so they don’t contract too hard. thereby aiming to reduce the clinical manifestations of obstructiveHCm including systolic obstruction and symptomatology associated with the disease.
