-Surgery for a new liver if the copper build up is severe
-Medication such as Penicillamine goes through the bloodstream grabbing minerals, like copper. Trientine is very similar to Penicillamine. Zinc acetate prevents you from in taking copper from your food.All of these medications come with horrible side affects.]]> 2018-04-06 01:15:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mattbagley23/jgplewmrm4wl/wish/249087204 Complications mattbagley23 https://padlet.com/mattbagley23/jgplewmrm4wl/wish/249087608 -Scarring of liver
