Jolltrin Capsule 100's is indicated for the treatment of Wilson’s disease and also as an alternative in patients who cannot take penicillamine because of side effects. Wilson's disease is a genetic metabolic disorder that causes excess copper to accumulate in the body.

Jolltrin Capsule 100's contains Trientine hydrochloride, a copper-chelating agent, which works by attaching to the copper and removing excess copper from the body via urine.

In some cases, Jolltrin Capsule 100's may cause nausea, stomach upset, loss of appetite, and iron deficiency anaemia, causing weakness or fatigue. Most of the side effects may not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, talk to the doctor if any of the side effects persist or worsen.

Let the doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Jolltrin Capsule 100's. Consult the doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep the doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions. It is advised to avoid taking high copper-containing foods.
