Additional Information for Penicillamine Capsules
Penicillamine Capsules are a type of medication that belongs to the supply class Drugs And Biologicals in the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.
Penicillamine is a chelating agent that is used to treat certain medical conditions, including Wilson's disease (a genetic disorder that causes copper to accumulate in the body), rheumatoid arthritis, and cystinuria (a condition that causes the formation of kidney stones).
These capsules contain penicillamine as the active ingredient and are typically taken orally. They work by binding to certain metals in the body, such as copper, and helping to remove them through urine. This helps to reduce the symptoms and complications associated with these medical conditions.
It is important to note that Penicillamine Capsules should only be taken under the supervision and prescription of a healthcare professional. They may have potential side effects and interactions with other medications, so it is crucial to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
If you have any specific questions or concerns about Penicillamine Capsules or any other medication, it is best to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
