Abstract
A proportion of patients (11 out of 23) treated for rheumatoid arthritis with D-penicillamine have shown raised plasma levels of lactic dehydrogenase. No explanation of this has been discovered on investigation. It is not considered that these observations indicate a significant toxic effect of D-penicillamine.Keywords
