Does Phenylketonuria have a cure?

Here you can see if Phenylketonuria has a cure or not yet. If there is no cure yet, is Phenylketonuria chronic? Will a cure soon be discovered?

3 answers

No, there is no cure. For years my parents were waiting for something like that. 20 years ago they heard about a pill that might help and after all these years this pill has reached the proposed treatment now. I do believe that we are one step closer, but I think we have a lot of way ahead of us.
