ریلوزول
Riluzole is a medication used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other motor neuron diseases. Riluzole delays the onset of ventilator-dependence or tracheostomy in some people and may increase survival by two to three months. Riluzole is available in tablet and liquid form. A thin film version of riluzole which dissolves on the tongue (commercially known as Exservan or Emylif) is available in the United States and United Kingdom.
