Filsuvez is indicated for the treatment of partial thickness wounds in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) in adults and children aged 6 months and older. DEB is a rare genetic disorder characterized by extremely fragile skin that blisters and tears easily from minor trauma.
Filsuvez contains birch triterpenes extracted from birch bark. These compounds have anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties that help promote wound closure and support skin regeneration in patients with fragile skin.
Filsuvez is for topical use only and should be applied as a thin layer to clean wounds as directed by a healthcare provider. Common side effects may include application site reactions. Patients should consult their doctor for complete usage instructions and to understand potential interactions or contraindications specific to their condition.
