Lysosomal enzymes
A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug classes.
Lysosomal enzymes are synthetic forms of these enzymes, which occur naturally in the body cells, and that are necessary for metabolic processes. Naturally occurring lysosomal enzymes breakdown large molecules and other materials that get taken up by the cell. Deficiency of these enzymes causes storage disease that can affect growth and development failure.
Lysosomal enzymes are used to treat conditions where the body lacks these particular enzymes.
