Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: http://www.drugbank.ca/drugs/DB06823 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiopronin

Tiopronin is a prescription thiol drug used primarily in the treatment of severe homozygous cystinuria. Patients with cystinuria excrete high levels of cystine in their urine and are at risk for kidney stone formation. Tiopronin is used as a second-line therapy to control the rate of cystine precipitation and excretion, and prevent kidney stone formation. It is used after a failure of the non-pharmacological first line treatment consisting of increased fluid intake, restriction of sodium and protein, and urinary alkalinization. As cystinuria is a relatively rare disease, tiopronin is classified as an orphan drug and is not patented in the United States. It is similar to d-penicillamine in use and efficacy, but offers the advantage of far less adverse effects. Tiopronin is dosed on an individual basis using close monitoring of urinary cystine concentrations and urinary output. Tiopronin is a chelating agent. It works by removing extra cystine (the cause of kidney stones) from the urine, which keeps the kidney stones from forming. It works by reacting with urinary cysteine to form a more soluble, disulfide linked, tiopronin-cysteine complex.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

THIOLA (Tiopronin) may be begun at a dosage of 800 mg/day in adult patients with cystine stones. In a multiclinic trial, average dose of THIOLA was about 1000 mg/day. In children, initial dosage may be based on 15 mg/kg/day. Whenever possible, THIOLA should be given in divided doses 3 times/day at least one hour before or 2 hours after meals.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

Tiopronin (2 mM) completely prevents the Cisplatin-induced increase in enzyme leakage and substantially blocks the decrease of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction caused by Cisplatin. Tiopronin also significantly protects the renal slices from cisplatin-induced toxic effects. Tiopronin protects against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity by acting as an alternative target for Cisplatin both intra- and extracellularly and thus protects against cisplatin-induced depletion of glutathione in the kidney cell
