Added comment: MODERATE actionability in adults by ClinGen.

Adulthood presentation is associated with minor symptoms like fatigue and decreased stamina, but dilated cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death have also been reported.

The main treatment for CDSP is lifelong oral levocarnitine (L-carnitine) supplementation. The benefit of treatment in asymptomatic adults is less well established, but is hoped it may prevent cardiac events and decompensations. Metabolic decompensation and hypoglycaemic episodes are treated with glucose in addition to carnitine supplementation. Referral to cardiology for cardiomyopathy assessment is recommended.
