Trientine hydrochloride is used in the treatment of penicillamine-intolerant patients with Wilson's disease, a genetic disease that prevents the body from removing excess copper and potentially causing life-threatening organ damage.
Clinical experience with trientine hydrochloride is limited and alternate dosing regimens have not been well-characterized; all endpoints in determining an individual patient's dose have not been well defined.
Trientine hydrochloride and penicillamine cannot be considered interchangeable. Trientine hydrochloride should be used when continued treatment with penicillamine is no longer possible because of intolerable or life endangering side effects.
