About Jollimine Capsule
Jollimine Capsule 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.
Jollimine Capsule 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, Jollimine Capsule is also used to treat cystinuria (kidney and bladder stone) and lead poisoning.
Take Jollimine Capsule exactly as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Jollimine Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as protein in the urine, low blood platelets, stomach upset or throwing up, diarrhoea, change in taste, loss of appetite, mouth irritation, and mouth sores. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Jollimine Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed. To avoid recurring symptoms, do not stop it midway. Do not take Jollimine Capsule if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy as Jollimine Capsule causes serious congenital disabilities. Jollimine Capsule should not be taken by breastfeeding mothers as it passes into breast milk. Your doctor may advise you to undergo regular blood tests, and kidney and liver tests to monitor your condition. Inform your doctor about your health condition and medicines to rule out any unpleasant side effects.
