Tidiacic is a hepatoprotective drug. It is a component of tidiacic arginine.

Tidiacic arginine (trade name Tiadilon) is a 1:1 combination of the amino acid arginine and tidiacic (thiazolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid), which acts as a sulfur donor.

In France, its indications and use have been described as "identical to those of silymarin".[1]
