DMSA

Powerful Heavy Metal Chelation

‍DMSA is widely used as a chelating agent to bind and remove toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and arsenic from the body. It forms stable, water-soluble complexes with these metals, which are then excreted through urine.

‍Relative Safety Profile

‍DMSA has a lower risk of redistributing metals to the brain compared to other chelators, and it’s considered safer for long-term or repeated treatments. Its side effects are generally mild (gastrointestinal upset, rash), though monitoring is recommended.

Oral Bioavailability‍

Unlike some other chelating agents (e.g., BAL or DMPS), DMSA is effective when taken orally. This makes it a preferred option in clinical settings, especially for children with lead poisoning.
