

Heavy Metal acts as general protoplasmic
poison and impairs the cell function.
Have ability to form complexes with
important biological radicals like sulfhydryl
hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino acid, imidazole.




These are the drugs used to prevent heavy
metal poisoning.
Chelation : The process by which these
organic compounds combine with the
metals to form relatively stable nonionised
ring complexes (chele-clow).
Drug + Metallic ions
Non toxic , water soluble complex
eliminated by the kidney


These compounds are usually flexible
organic molecules which can incorporate
metal ions into their molecular structure by
means of chemical groups called ligands



Chele =crab’s claw
Ligare =to bind






Have two or more electronegative groups
that form stable coordinate covalent bonds
with the cationic metal atom
Chelator –metal complex is stable,
biologically inert and excreted in urine
Thus appropriate chelating agent can be
effectively used in cases of heavy metal
poisoning




It was synthesized during the world war II by
Britishers as an antidote to arsenic war gas
lewisite
Oily, pungent smelling, viscous fluid
It is administered i.m in oil (arachis oil)
-SH ligands of dimercaprol compete with –SH
groups of enzymes for heavy metal
Dimercaprol –metal complex is stable and
excreted in urine
Uses:
 For the treatment of arsenic and mercury
poisoning
 As adjuvant to Cal. disod. Edetate in lead
poisoning
 As an adjuvant to pencillamine in copper
poisoning and in Wilson’s disease
Contraindicated in iron and cadmium poisoning
Adverse effects:
 Frequent, dose related, but generally not
damaging
 Rise in BP, tachycardia, tingling and burning
sensations, inflammation of mucous
membranes, sweating, cramps, headache
and anxiety
 Dose 5mg/kg followed by 2-3mg/kg
4hr/2days
DMSA (Succimer):


Dimercaprol analogue



Water soluble, less toxic and orally effective



Marketed in USA and some other countries, not
in India for the treatment of lead intoxication



Side effects are nausea, anorexia and loose
motions



Dose-10mg/kg 8hrly/5days

COOH
DMPS (unithiol):


Dimercaprol analogue



Water soluble, less toxic



Can be administered orally as well as IV



Used for severe acute poisoning by mercury and arsenic



Also effective in the treatment of lead poisoning



Dose-3-5mg/kg 4hrly by i.v in 20min
Adverse effects are low, except for mild self-limited
urticaria






It is a disodium salt of EDTA
Potent chelator of calcium
Causes tetany on i.v. injection (but not on
slow infusion)
Can be used for emergency control of
hypercalcaemia (rare) 50mg/kg i.v. over 24hours








Calcium chelator of Na2 EDTA
Has a high affinity for lead
Most important use is lead poisoning
Poorly absorbed from GI –given i.m or i.v.
i.m is very painful –i.v. preferred
Not metabolized
Excreted by glomerular filtration and
tubular secretion
Adverse reactions:
 Does not produce tetany –relatively safe
 Kidney damage with proximal tubular
necrosis –but dose related
 An acute febrile reaction with chills, body
ache, malaise, tiredness occurs in some
individuals
 Dose- 50-75mg/kg /day i.v


Dimethylcysteine



Water soluble degradation product of penicillin



D –isomer is used-relatively non toxic compared to l –isomer
(optic neuritis)



Easily absorbed from GIT



Little metabolized, excreted in urine and faeces



It has strong copper chelating property and was used in 1956
for Wilson’s disease



It selectively chelates Cu, Hg, Pb and Zn
Uses:


Wilson’s disease (hepatolenticular degeneration)



Copper/ mercury (alternate to BAL & DMSA) poisoning



Adjuvant to cal. disod. Edetate in lead poisoning but DMSA is
preferred



Cystinuria and cystine stones



Scleroderma –benefits by increasing the soluble collagen



It was used as a disease modifying drug in rheumatoid arthritis,
but now replaced by safer drugs
Adverse effects:


Short term administration –does not cause
much problem (cutaneous reactions)



Long term use –produces pronounced toxicity


Dermatological, renal, hematological and collagen
tissue toxicities

Dose-0.5-1g daily in divided doses


Chelates copper and is used in Wilson’s
disease



May be less toxic than pencillamine



However, in animal studies it has been
found to be teratogenic


Ferrioxamine Obtained from actinomycete, long chain iron containing
complex



Chemical removal of iron from it yields desferrioxamine



1gm is capable of chelating 85mg of elemental iron



Low affinity for calcium



Little of orally administered desferrioxamine is absorbed



Parenterally –partly metabolized, rapidly excreted in urine
Uses:


Acute iron poisoning: mostly in children,
important and life saving



Transfusion siderosis

Adverse effects:


Hypotensive shock due to histamine release



Abdominal pain, muscle cramps, fever and
dysuria



Dose- i.v ,10-15mg/kg/hr infusion


Orally active



Used in transfusion siderosis



Somewhat less effective, alternate to injected
desferrioxamine



Side effects and cost of treatment are reduced



Also indicated in iron poisoning (less effective than
desferrioxamine) and iron load in liver cirrhosis
Side effects are:


Anorexia, vomiting, altered taste, joint pain,
reversible neutropenia, rarely
agranulocytosis



Long term safety is not yet known



Dose-50-100mg/kg
Primary goals of chelation therapy:
 To reduce metal retention
 To decrease morbidity and mortality
 To prevent complications
Many efficient chelators exist today
Administer less toxic chelator when possible
Unsolved issues:
 Chelation of cadmium, chromium, platinum…
 Chelation therapy in infants, children and during
pregnancy
 Combined chelation therapy (chelators, vitamins,
minerals…)

  • 23. Uses:  Acute iron poisoning: mostly in children, important and life saving  Transfusion siderosis Adverse effects:  Hypotensive shock due to histamine release  Abdominal pain, muscle cramps, fever and dysuria  Dose- i.v ,10-15mg/kg/hr infusion
  • 24.  Orally active  Used in transfusion siderosis  Somewhat less effective, alternate to injected desferrioxamine  Side effects and cost of treatment are reduced  Also indicated in iron poisoning (less effective than desferrioxamine) and iron load in liver cirrhosis
  • 25. Side effects are:  Anorexia, vomiting, altered taste, joint pain, reversible neutropenia, rarely agranulocytosis  Long term safety is not yet known  Dose-50-100mg/kg
  • 26. Primary goals of chelation therapy:  To reduce metal retention  To decrease morbidity and mortality  To prevent complications Many efficient chelators exist today Administer less toxic chelator when possible Unsolved issues:  Chelation of cadmium, chromium, platinum…  Chelation therapy in infants, children and during pregnancy  Combined chelation therapy (chelators, vitamins, minerals…)

  1. Wilson's disease or hepatolenticular degeneration is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder in which copper accumulates in tissues; this manifests as neurological or psychiatric symptoms and liver disease. It is treated with medication that reduces copper absorption or removes the excess copper from the body, but occasionally a liver transplant is required.[1] The condition is due to mutations in the Wilson disease protein (ATP7B) gene. A single abnormal copy of the gene is present in 1 in 100 people, who do not develop any symptoms (they are carriers). If a child inherits the gene from both parents, the child may develop Wilson's disease. Symptoms usually appear between the ages of 6 and 20 years, but cases in much older people have been described. Wilson's disease occurs in 1 to 4 per 100,000 people.[1] It is named after Samuel Alexander Kinnier Wilson (1878–1937), the British neurologist who first described the condition in 1912.
  2. Tetany or tetany seizure is a medical sign consisting of the involuntary contraction of muscles, which may be caused by disease or other conditions that increase the action potential frequency. Muscle cramps that are caused by the disease tetanus are not classified as tetany; rather, they are due to a blocking of the inhibition to the neurons that supply muscles.
