We wish to report another case in which the clinical picture of this syndrome occurred during treatment with this drug.A 51-year-old white man with a 6-year history of sero-positive, erosive, and nodular rheumatoid arthritis began treatment with D-penicillamine in August 1972. His illness had been complicated by a pleural effusion in May 1972, but there had been no other systemic features. D-Penicillamine was prescribed in slowly increasing daily doses to a maximum of 1.2 g per day....References1.
