Febuxostat
Generic alternative to Uloric
Febuxostat is a medication primarily used to treat chronic gout and hyperuricemia (excess uric acid in the blood). It works by reducing the production of uric acid in the body, which helps prevent gout flare-ups and the formation of uric acid crystals.
How is this medication used?
Febuxostat is usually taken orally, once a day, with or without food. The dosage and length of treatment are based on your medical condition and response to treatment. It is important to take this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it, even if you feel well.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of febuxostat include liver enzyme elevations, nausea, rash, joint pain, and gout flares. Serious but rare side effects can include liver disease, severe skin reactions, and cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke.
What are the potential interactions?
Febuxostat can interact with other medications, notably azathioprine, mercaptopurine, and theophylline. Co-administration with these drugs can increase the risk of serious adverse reactions. It's important to inform your healthcare provider of all medications, supplements, and herbs you are taking to avoid potential drug interactions.
