    Wilson's disease (WD) is a kind of inherited metabolic liver disease in which most patients need lifelong medication to maintain copper homeostasis in the body. Zinc is one of the most commonly used drugs for WD treatment. However, there are currently few high-quality, large-sample, and prospective clinical trials on zinc agent-treated WD. The selection and application of zinc agents are mainly based on patients' clinical phenotype, tolerance to zinc agents, and physicians' experience in treating WD. This article summarizes the application of zinc agents in WD.
