Penicillamine is an anti-rheumatic agent used in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. It is known as disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD). It is also classified as metal chelating agent due to its metal binding capacity, which is used in the treatment of Wilson’s disease, in which copper accumulates in the body. Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disorder which causes severe inflammation of joints. Mechanism of action of penicillamine to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis is unknown, but it might be reducing the formation of collagen and also in suppression of immune system ultimately in reduction of inflammation.

As no exact mechanism of action is effective in case of rheumatoid arthritis, Penicillamine should be administered along with other anti-rheumatic agents for effective treatment. It is well proven that Penicillamine is a good metal binding agent and has been used for rare disease treatment (Wilson’s Disease). More in-vitro and in-vivo studies should be carried out to study the exact mechanism of action for rheumatoid arthritis at available strengths.
