What is the latest price of Trientine in 2025?

Trientine (Trientine) is a drug used to treat Wilson's disease, a disease that causes serious health problems due to the buildup of excess copper in the body. Trientine helps remove excess copper from the body by binding to it and reducing its absorption, thereby preventing damage to the liver, brain, and other organs. The bound copper is excreted from the body through the kidneys and eventually excreted in the urine.

This drug is available only with a doctor's prescription and must be taken strictly according to the doctor's instructions. Patients should be careful not to use this medication in excess amounts, less frequently, or for longer than recommended by their doctor. Proper administration is on an empty stomach, at least one hour before or two hours after a meal. Also, be sure to take trientine at least one hour before or after taking any other medicines, food, or milk to maximize absorption of the medicine.

It is important to emphasize that trientine will not cure Wilson's disease, but it is effective in removing excess copper from the body. Therefore, patients must take this drug regularly as directed by their doctor, and may require lifelong maintenance treatment. If treatment is interrupted, severe liver damage may occur and may be life-threatening. Therefore, patients should not stop taking trientine without consulting their doctor. Following your doctor's instructions and regular check-ups are important to maintaining good health.

Trientine’s original drug has been launched in some areas of Hainan through specific channels, and its purchase channels and prices are restricted. There are American and German versions of the original trientine drug marketed overseas. The common specification of the German version is 200mg*100 tablets, and each box may be sold for more than 40,000 yuan (the price may fluctuate due to exchange rates). At the same time, there are also Indian generic versions of the drug for sale in overseas markets. The ingredients of the drug are basically the same as those of the original drug, but the price is not yet clear.
