AMX0035 is a drug that appears promising in slowing the progression of ALS. However, it has not been approved yet by the FDA and is therefore not available to those suffering from this disease. The ALS Association is urging the FDA to expedite the review and approval of AMX0035. Please sign the following petition (linked below) that asks the FDA to expeditiously review and approve this new drug.
