I say «curious» because Marathon came under intense scrutiny for its initial plans to hike the drug's price to $ 89,000 per year even though it's available for a mere pittance in other countries (and doesn't actually address the root causes of Duchenne, but
rather just some of its
muscle -
wasting symptoms).
The symptoms are stiffness or soreness after rest, reluctance to exercise, bunny - hopping or other abnormal gaits (e.g. legs moving together when running
rather than swinging alternately), lameness, pain, reluctance to stand on rear legs, jump up, or climb stairs, subluxation or dislocation of the hip joint, or
wasting away of the
muscle mass in the hip area.
