CARNITOR SF (levocarnitine) is an oral solution containing a naturally occurring substance essential for cellular energy metabolism. It facilitates long-chain fatty acid entry into mitochondria for oxidation and ATP production, and is used to treat primary and secondary carnitine deficiency, including inborn errors of metabolism such as glutaric aciduria II, methylmalonic aciduria, and propionic acidemia. The drug works by clearing toxic acylCoA compounds through formation of acylcarnitine, which is rapidly excreted.
