<p>Edaravone, along with riluzole, is a key treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), with evidence supporting its efficacy in slowing disease progression, particularly in patients with early-stage ALS. Despite its approval and increasing clinical use, several critical questions about its use remain unanswered: Can edaravone be effective as monotherapy? Is it beneficial for patients who fall outside the inclusion criteria of pivotal trials? What is the optimal duration of treatment as ALS progresses? In addition, does edaravone provide clinical benefit to patients with familial ALS? Answering these questions is essential to optimize the use of edaravone in clinical practice and to further our understanding of its role in the treatment of ALS. This review synthesizes the current evidence to address these questions and identifies areas that require further investigation.</p>
