Founded in 2002 and headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida, Catalyst Pharmaceuticals takes a focused approach to tackle the challenges faced by people living with rare conditions. Through its commitment to these underserved patient communities, Catalyst aims to bring significant improvements to their quality of life by providing novel treatment options.
Firdapse (amifampridine phosphate tablets)
An approved medication for the treatment of adults with Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome (LEMS), Firdapse works by improving the communication between nerves and muscles, offering symptomatic relief and improved muscle function. Catalyst Pharmaceuticals has taken steps to ensure Firdapse is available to those who need it, addressing a critical need within the LEMS community.
