In this discussion, Dr Brenda Wong explores how families can be supported by advocacy organizations after a Duchenne muscular dystrophy diagnosis. She elaborates on how care needs evolve across the lifespan, and how advocacy organizations can help guide multidisciplinary care, treatment decisions, care transitions, and participation in cutting edge DMD research.

Explore today’s DMD treatment toolkit—from steroids and givinostat to gene therapy and exon skipping—plus dosing debates shaping care.

A teen with Duchenne shows how exon-skipping and steroids shape care, while clinicians stress realistic expectations amid varied progression.

In this episode, 'Narcolepsy Treatment Considerations in Pediatric Patients', the experts explore the pharmacologic treatment of narcolepsy in pediatric patients, beginning with a review of FDA-approved options for children. The expert panel notes that the oxybate class, including sodium oxybate, low-sodium oxybate, and once-nightly oxybate, carries approval for excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy in patients seven and older, while pitolisant is approved for ages six and up for both indications, including a recently added cataplexy indication. The expert panel clarifies that traditional stimulants and solriamfetol have not been specifically studied or approved for cataplexy treatment.
