Abstract Gaucher disease (GD) is a heterogeneous condition requiring tailored treatment approaches. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesise and evaluate current evidence pertaining to the use of Ambroxol for the treatment of GD. Published and unpublished literature databases, conference proceedings and the reference lists of included studies were searched until 23 November 2023. A narrative synthesis was performed. Database search and risk of bias assessment were performed independently by two reviewers. Twenty‐one studies (182 patients) were included. The evidence was low in quality. Variable responses to Ambroxol were observed. Response rates were 36% and 55% in two studies reporting on type 1 GD. One study found a 22% response rate in type 2 GD, whereas another study found 29% of patients with type 3 GD reported neurological improvements. No severe adverse events were reported in the literature, with mild and reversible side effects reported. Varying response rates are to be expected (29%–100%) when treating neurological manifestations. Varying degrees of symptomatic improvement for the treatment of GD were noted in the literature. Multidisciplinary team input and clinical judgement are advised to provide personalized treatment of this complex and multi‐faceted condition.
