Andrei Popov

General medicinePain medicine7 years of experience

Dr. Andrei Popov is a General Practitioner with specialized training in chronic pain. He provides online consultations for adult patients in Spain and other European countries.

Dr. Popov understands that seeking help with weight-related concerns or pain that has persisted for months can be difficult. Many patients come to him after trying different approaches without feeling truly heard. During the consultation, the doctor creates a comfortable and supportive, non-judgmental environment where the patient’s medical history can be discussed in detail, questions can be answered, and the next steps can be decided together.

Weight Management and Metabolic Health

Dr. Popov can help assess overweight, obesity, and related conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or metabolic disorders. During the consultation, the patient’s medical history, test results, current medications, and previous treatments will be reviewed.

If you would like to learn about possible medication options or have already started treatment, the doctor can assess your situation, review the effectiveness and tolerability of the therapy, and clearly explain its benefits, potential risks, and alternatives.

Not every patient requires the same treatment. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription — it provides an objective medical assessment and a plan tailored to your individual situation.

Pain and General Medicine

You can also consult Dr. Popov regarding:

* chronic pain, migraines, neuralgia, and fibromyalgia;

* back, neck, lower back, or joint pain;

* hypertension, diabetes, and follow-up of chronic conditions;

* review of test results, medical reports, and current treatment;

* preventive medicine and a second medical opinion.

How the Consultation Works

The video consultation lasts up to 30 minutes. The doctor will listen carefully, review the information you provide, and explain the next steps in clear and understandable language.

If additional tests, an in-person consultation, or urgent medical care are required, the doctor will inform you directly.

Dr. Popov’s goal is to make sure the patient feels heard and leaves the consultation with a clear understanding of their condition and the next steps they can take.

1. What is Mepsevii and what is it used for

What is Mepsevii

Mepsevii contains a recombinant human enzyme called vestronidase alfa. This belongs to a group of medicines called "enzyme replacement therapies". It is given to adults and children of all ages with MPS VII to treat the non-neurological manifestations of the disease (mucopolysaccharidosis VII, also known as Sly syndrome).

What is MPS VII

MPS VII is a genetic inherited disease in which the body does not produce enough of an enzyme called beta-glucuronidase.

  • This enzyme breaks down mucopolysaccharides, which are a type of sugar.
  • Mucopolysaccharides are made by the body and help form bones, cartilage, skin, and tendons.
  • These sugars are constantly being recycled: new ones are created and old ones are broken down.
  • If there is not enough beta-glucuronidase, some of these sugars build up in cells, causing damage to the body.

How Mepsevii works

This medicine replaces beta-glucuronidase, helping to break down the sugars that build up in the tissues of people with MPS VII, preventing them from accumulating and causing symptoms of the disease.

  • Treatment may improve some signs and symptoms of the disease, such as walking problems and fatigue.

If treatment is started in early childhood, it may slow down the progression of the disease and reduce permanent damage.

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you receive Mepsevii

Do not receive Mepsevii

  • if you are allergic to vestronidase alfa or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor before receiving Mepsevii.

The effects of treatment with vestronidase alfa will be evaluated periodically, and if no clear benefits are seen (including stabilization of clinical manifestations of the disease), discontinuation of treatment will be considered. Stopping treatment may cause significant worsening of the patient's clinical condition.

You should know that administration of vestronidase alfa does not correct irreversible complications of the disease (e.g., bone deformities).

Examine the side effects

  • You may experience a reaction to the administration of the drug known as "infusion reaction". This includes any side effect that occurs during infusion or the day after, including an allergic reaction (see section 4 "Possible side effects"). If you experience an infusion reaction, tell your doctor immediately.
  • If you experience an allergic reaction during infusion, your doctor may slow down or stop the infusion. Your doctor may also give you other medicines to treat the allergic reaction, such as an antihistamine, a corticosteroid, or an antipyretic (a medicine that lowers fever).

Other symptoms you should examine

  • If you experience neck or back pain, numbness in your arms or legs, or loss of control of sphincters, tell your doctor immediately.These symptoms could be signs of a disease caused by spinal cord compression.

Other medicines and Mepsevii

Tell your doctor if you are using, have recently used, or might use any other medicines.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor before using this medicine.
