Cuprimine (active ingredient: penicillamine) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:
Cuprimine belongs to a class of drugs known as chelating agents, which work by binding to heavy metals and promoting their excretion from the body, and as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
Penicillamine is taken orally in the form of capsules. It should be taken on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal, as well as at least 1 hour before or after consuming any food or milk. Penicillamine is taken four times a day for the treatment of Wilson’s disease and cystinuria, and once a day for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, with the option of increasing the frequency up to four times a day at higher doses.
The initial dose of penicillamine is typically low and will be gradually increased by the doctor. For the treatment of Wilson’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis, it may take one to three months or longer before the full benefits of penicillamine are experienced. Even if there are no symptoms, continue to take penicillamine as prescribed by the doctor. Do not stop taking the capsules without consulting the doctor, as this can increase the risk of an allergic reaction when resuming the medication.
Penicillamine should be taken at the same time every day, in accordance with the doctor’s instructions. Follow the prescription label and seek clarification from the doctor or pharmacist for any unclear instructions. Do not take more than the recommended dose or take it more often without consulting the doctor.
Cuprimine (Penicillamine) is available in the following forms and strength:
No, it is not safe to take penicillamine while pregnant. It can cause harm to your unborn baby. Talk to your provider about alternative medications if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
The time it takes for Penicillamine to work can vary depending on the condition being treated. Follow your doctor’s instructions and be patient if results are not immediately noticeable.
Penicillamine can be used in children, but the dose and duration of treatment may vary depending on the child’s age, weight, and condition being treated.
Penicillamine can be used in older adults, but caution should be taken due to an increased risk of side effects, especially bone marrow suppression and skin reactions.
