1. What is WILZIN and what is it used for

Wilzin belongs to a group of medicines called products for the alimentary tract and metabolism.

Wilzin is indicated for the treatment of Wilson's disease, a rare inherited defect in copper excretion. Dietary copper, which cannot be eliminated properly, accumulates first in the liver and then in other organs, such as the eyes and brain. This can lead to liver damage and neurological disorders.

Wilzin blocks the absorption of copper from the intestine and thus prevents its transfer to the blood and accumulation in the body. The unabsorbed copper is then eliminated in the feces.

Wilson's disease will persist throughout the patient's life, and therefore, treatment is necessary for life.

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. Before taking WILZIN

Do not take Wilzin:

If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to zinc or any of the other components of Wilzin.

Special warnings and precautions:

Because it takes time to take effect, Wilzin is not usually recommended for the initial treatment of patients with signs and symptoms of Wilson's disease.

If you are currently receiving treatment with another anti-copper medication, such as penicillamine, your doctor may add Wilzin to your treatment before stopping the initial treatment.

Like other anti-copper medications, such as penicillamine, your symptoms may worsen after starting treatment. In this case, you should inform your doctor.

In order to monitor your disease and treatment, your doctor will perform periodic blood and urine tests. This is done to ensure that you receive sufficient treatment.

Monitoring may detect signs of insufficient treatment (excess copper) or excessive treatment (copper deficiency), both of which are harmful, especially in the case of children in growth age and pregnant women.

You should inform your doctor if you feel muscle weakness or an abnormal sensation in the limbs, as this may indicate excessive treatment.

Using other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using or have recently used other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription.

Consult your doctor before taking any other medication that may reduce the effectiveness of Wilzin, such as iron, calcium supplements, tetracyclines (antibiotics), or phosphorus. On the other hand, the effectiveness of some medications, such as iron, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones (antibiotics), may be reduced by Wilzin.

Taking Wilzin with food and drinks

Wilzin should be taken on an empty stomach, separated from meals. Dietary fiber and some dairy products, especially, delay the absorption of zinc salts. Some patients experience stomach upset after the morning dose. Please discuss this with your doctor if it happens to you.

This side effect can be reduced by delaying the first dose of the day to mid-morning (between breakfast and lunch). It can also be minimized by taking the first dose of Wilzin with a small amount of protein-rich food, such as meat (never with milk).

Pregnancy

Consult your doctor if you plan to become pregnant. It is very important that you continue with anti-copper treatment during pregnancy.

If you become pregnant while taking Wilzin, your doctor will decide what treatment and dose are best for you.

Breast-feeding

You should avoid breast-feeding your child if you take Wilzin. Please discuss this with your doctor.

Driving and using machines:

No studies have been conducted on the ability to drive and use machines.

Important information about some of the ingredients of Wilzin

The 50 mg hard capsules of Wilzin contain orange yellow FCF (E110), which may cause allergic reactions.

.

3. How to TAKE WILZIN

Follow your doctor's instructions for taking Wilzin exactly. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts. For different doses, Wilzin is available in 25 mg or 50 mg hard capsules.

If you do not tolerate the morning dose well (see section 4), you can take it at mid-morning, between breakfast and lunch. You can also take Wilzin with a small amount of protein-rich food, such as meat, but never with milk.

If you have been prescribed Wilzin with another anti-copper medication, such as penicillamine, wait at least 1 hour between the two medications.

To administer Wilzin to children who cannot swallow the capsules, open the capsule and mix the powder with a little water (possibly with sugar or sweeteners).

If you take more WILZIN than you should:

If you take more Wilzin than indicated, you may experience nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. In this case, you should seek medical advice.
