Cystinosis Foundation Ireland is an all volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to providing services for those suffering from Cystinosis by:

  1. Patient/Parental Support - Patients/Parents are given information and referrals, and receive support from other families affected by the disease.
  2. Providing an Internet Website with information on what is available to the patient with Cystinosis in Ireland.
  3. Education and awareness about the condition to the Medical Profession and the public. Almost nothing is known about the condition in the general public and indeed in the Medical Profession. Many patients have experienced misdiagnosis, sometimes taking months and, on occasion, years to be correctly diagnosed. Early diagnosis is crucial so that cysteamine therapy (Cystagon™) is started as soon as possible.
  4. Research Support - The Foundation raises funds to promote research on causes and treatments of Cystinosis. To hopefully one day find a cure.

    Cystinosis Foundation Ireland was set up in 2003
