Treatment: There is no cure or specific treatment for MELAS. Although clinical trials have not proven their efficacy, general treatments may include such metabolic therapies as: CoQ10, creatine, phylloquinone, and other vitamins and supplements. Drugs such as seizure medications and insulin may be required for additional symptom management. Some patients with muscle dysfunction may benefit from moderate supervised exercise. In select cases, other therapies that may be prescribed include dichloroacetate (DCA) and menadione, though these are not routinely used due to their potential for having harmful side effects.
