Drug Details
Trientine is a medication specifically used to treat Wilson's disease, a genetic disorder that causes an excessive accumulation of copper in the liver, brain, and other organs. It is particularly prescribed for patients who cannot take penicillamine. Trientine works as a chelating agent by binding to copper, facilitating its removal from the body. This process helps to alleviate symptoms such as difficulties with speech, swallowing, coordination, fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, jaundice, fluid retention in the legs or abdomen, involuntary movements, and muscle stiffness.
