A cysteamine derivative represented by general formula (I): STR1 wherein R1 represents a straight-chain or a branched alkyl radical having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R2 represents hydrogen atom or n-propyl radical, and X represents a radical selected from the group consisting of radicals containing cysteamine moiety (N S) represented by formula (II): STR2 formula (III): STR3 formula (IV): STR4 formula (V): STR5 or formula (VI): STR6 wherein R2 represents hydrogen atom or a straight-chain or a branched alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms is provided. The cysteamine derivative is effective as an antirheumatic agent.
