Therapeutic options in other metabolic myopathies.


ABSTRACT: Adult patients with metabolic myopathies typically present with exercise-induced pain, cramps, fatigue, and myoglobinuria. The current therapeutic options of glycogen and lipid storage myopathies include dietary treatments, excersise training, and pharmacological supplementations. Herein is a review of evidence from randomized controlled trials in McArdle disease (glycogen storage disease type V, muscle phosphorylase deficiency) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) 2 deficiency. A brief overview on current treatment options in rhabdomyolysis is also included because patients with McArdle disease and CPT 2 often experience such potentially life-threatening complications.
