| Sapropterin Dihydrochloride (BH4, tetrahydrobiopterin) | Drug | Patients were supplemented with phenylalanine a protein rich supplement based on milk protein, or an increase in natural protein intake) if phenylalanine was < 400 μmol/l. BH4 20 mg/kg was administered at T = 0 and T = 24. Blood samples were taken at T = 0, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h. Responsiveness was defined as ≥ 30% reduction in phenylalanine concentration at ≥ 1 time point. |

| • Serum phenylealanine level in patients after given tetrahydrobiopterin | Patients were supplemented with phenylalanine a protein rich supplement based on milk protein, or an increase in natural protein intake) if phenylalanine was < 400 μmol/l. BH4 20 mg/kg was administered for 48 hours . Blood samples were taken at Hour = 0, 8, 16, 24 and 48 . Responsiveness was defined as ≥ 30% reduction in phenylalanine concentration at ≥ 1 time point. | Blood samples were taken at Hour = 0, 8, 16, 24 and 48 |
