Arsenic trioxide is an inorganic compound with the formula As
2O
3.[5] As an industrial chemical, its major uses include the manufacture of wood preservatives, pesticides, and glass.[6] It is sold under the brand name Trisenox among others[2][3] when used as a medication to treat a type of cancer known as acute promyelocytic leukemia.[7] For this use it is given by injection into a vein.[7]
Common side effects include vomiting, diarrhea, swelling, shortness of breath, and headaches.[7] Severe side effects may include APL differentiation syndrome and heart problems.[7] Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding may harm the baby.[8][9] Its mechanism in treating cancer is not entirely clear.[7]
Arsenic trioxide was approved for medical use in the United States in 2000.[7] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[10] Approximately 50,000 tonnes are produced a year.[11] Due to its toxicity, a number of countries have regulations around its manufacture and sale.[12]
