What is NITYR?
NITYR is Here for You, for Life
NITYR is an FDA-approved tablet indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with Tyrosinemia Type 1 (HT-1) in combination with dietary restriction of tyrosine and phenylalanine.
We know that supporting people with rare diseases is about more than just the medicine. That’s why we created Cycle Vita, delivering individualized product support* with NITYR, every step of the way.
More and more people with HT-1 and their caregivers are discovering the independence NITYR can bring to their nitisinone medicine.
Designed with convenience in mind, NITYR may give patients and their caregivers one less thing to worry about with the flexibility and freedom that has enabled 100% of the patients who have transitioned to NITYR to not voluntarily return to Orfadin** (nitisinone).1

Taking NITYR
- Use the reusable syringe provided. Remove the plunger, add one NITYR tablet and replace the plunger.
- Draw up 2.6 mL of room temperature water.
- Put the cap back on and let the syringe sit for at least 60 minutes.
- Once you are ready to administer (you can administer up to 24 hours after adding water to the tablet), turn the oral syringe up and down for at least 30 seconds and check that no large lumps of tablet remain. If there are large lumps, let the syringe sit for a further 10 minutes, and then reinspect the syringe for any large lumps. Once no large lumps of tablet remain, turn the oral syringe up and down for at least 30 seconds before administering the medication.
- Take the cap off, place the syringe in the child’s mouth, and push down on the plunger until a small amount of air remains in the syringe. Do not press the plunger all the way to the end.
- Rinse the syringe by drawing up another 2 mL of water. Replace the cap and shake the syringe well.
- Take the cap off, place the syringe in the child’s mouth and push down on the plunger until it is completely empty.
