Aaramine-250mg Tablet 10's belongs to the group of medicines called ‘chelating agents’ used to treat severe rheumatoid arthritis, Wilsons disease, and cystinuria. Rheumatoid arthritis is a joint disorder in which our immune system attacks our body cells. Wilson disease is a genetic problem characterized by excess copper deposited in body parts like the eye, brain, and liver leading to metal toxicity. Cystinuria is the excess build-up of an amino acid called cystine in the urinary bladder and kidney, leading to harmful effects.
Aaramine-250mg Tablet 10's contains Penicillamine which works by blocking the action of certain chemical messengers responsible for inflammation and slows the progress of the condition with certain joint diseases. It works in Wilson's disease by binding to the extra copper in the body and causing it to leave the body through the urine. Decreasing copper levels improves liver function, and mental, mood, and nerve problems (like confusion, and difficulty speaking or walking) caused due to Wilson's disease. Besides this, Aaramine-250mg Tablet 10's is also used to treat cystinuria (kidney and bladder stone) and lead poisoning.
