Chemical formula: C₂₂H₂₃N₇O  Molecular mass: 401.474 g/mol 

Active ingredient description

Risdiplam is a survival of motor neuron 2 (SMN2) pre-mRNA splicing modifier designed to treat SMA caused by mutations of the SMN1 gene in chromosome 5q that lead to SMN protein deficiency. Functional SMN protein deficiency is directly linked to the SMA pathophysiology which includes progressive loss of motor neurons and muscle weakness. Risdiplam treats SMA by increasing and sustaining functional SMN protein levels.
