Wilson disease developing osteoarthritic pain in severe acute liver failure: A case report

Figure 3 Blood alkaline phosphatase and bone type alkaline phosphatase levels while receiving Zn and trientine treatment. The blood alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bone type ALP levels increased with deterioration in knee pain owing to trientine treatment. However, the blood ALP and bone type ALP levels gradually decreased with improvement in the clinical status of Wilson disease, and pain was attenuated in both knees. Zn and trientine (15 mg/kg/d) were administered on Day 5, and trientine was increased to 30 mg/kg/d on Day 8 and 40 mg/kg/d on Day 40. Trientine was then decreased to 30 mg/kg/d on Day 70 (one black arrow), 20 mg/kg/d on D 152 (two black arrows), and 10 mg/kg/d on Day 288 (three black arrows).
