Hebrew term

כולכיציו, כולפיצין- names of medications

Hebrew to English Medical Medical (general) names of medications
Although this is a fuzzy fax, in one place it seems to clearly be written "and 0.5MG כולכיציו twice daily was added." A couple of lines later it says:
"and כולפיצין for 7 months." Doing a Google search I saw one incidence of כולכיציו and nothing at all about כולפיצין
Any ideas what these might be in English? Thanks!

Colchicine

כולכיציו is most probably Colchicine, and כולפיצין might be the same.
I am unaware of any drugs that resembles כולפיצין.
