The second step in BH 4 synthesis, catalyzed by 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase (PTPS), involves the Zn 2+ and Mg 2+ -dependent rearrangement of 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate, with concommitant loss of the triphosphate, to 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin
This may lead to symptoms like restlessness, elevated heart rate, shivering, or in rare cases, signs of serotonin toxicity
Most patients report better hydration, less nausea, clearer thinking, and a softer headache within an hour or two
