MFDS ingredient code M259811
D-penicillamine is an antidote component used in the treatment of heavy metal poisoning. It is primarily used to remove excess metals such as lead or copper that accumulate in the body. It is also utilized in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
This component helps to bind heavy metals accumulated in the body and facilitate their excretion. After binding to the metals, it is excreted through the kidneys in the urine, reducing the toxicity of heavy metals. This process lowers the metal concentration in the body and alleviates symptoms.
