It sounds like you might be referring to Vyndaqel (tafamidis meglumine), which is another medication approved for treating ATTR-CM (transthyretin-mediated amyloid cardiomyopathy). Both Vyndamax and Vyndaqel are FDA-approved TTR stabilizers used to treat heart disease resulting from wild-type or hereditary ATTR amyloidosis.

There is another commercial that mentions amyloid, but it actually pertains to Alzheimers, which is Beta Amyloid and treated in an entirely different manner. This commercial does NOT apply to our types of amyloid.
