Abstract
In a study using 14C-D-penicillamine in a normal subject only 50% of the D-penicillamine was absorbed from the gut. The major urinary metabolites are cysteine-penicillamine and penicillamine disulphide. S-methyl-D-penicillamine is the only biochemically transformed metabolite so far identified.Entities:
