WHAT IS PYRUKYND?

PYRUKYND is a prescription medicine used to treat low red blood cell counts caused by the early breakdown of red blood cells (hemolytic anemia) in adults with pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency.

If you have to stop your treatment with PYRUKYND, your healthcare provider should monitor you closely. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you develop any signs or symptoms of breakdown of red blood cells including yellowing of the skin or the whites of your eyes (jaundice), dark colored urine, dizziness, confusion, feeling tired, or shortness of breath

The most common side effects of PYRUKYND were decrease in reproductive hormone (estrone) in men, increased salt from uric acid (urate) blood test, back pain, decrease in reproductive hormone (estradiol) in men, and joint pain (arthralgia).
