These pages are written in the detail and using the terminology required for doctors and other health professionals. A full explanation of porphyria is given, as well as practical details of diagnosis and management.
You will also find a range of useful additional information difficult to source elsewhere, such as guidelines for the management of specific diseases in the presence of porphyria, on ordering haem arginate, on pregnancy and delivery and so on. We will continue to adding to these, often in response to specific questions addressed to us by our clients. We welcome your suggestions.
