Amifampridine phosphate (Cat No.: I002177) is a salt form of amifampridine, a potassium channel blocker used to treat Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) and certain congenital myasthenic syndromes. By prolonging presynaptic action potentials, it enhances acetylcholine release at neuromuscular junctions, improving muscle strength. It has shown efficacy in rare neuromuscular disorders and is being explored for other neurological conditions. With good bioavailability and tolerability, amifampridine phosphate is a key treatment option for improving mobility and quality of life in LEMS patients.
