Overview
Goutgesic 40mg Tablets (10 pack) contain febuxostat, a medicine that lowers the level of uric acid in the blood to prevent gout. Febuxostat reduces the body's production of uric acid, the substance that forms sharp crystals in the joints and triggers the intense pain, redness and swelling of gout attacks. Taken regularly, it gradually lowers uric acid, helping to prevent future attacks and the long-term joint damage of repeated gout. The 40mg strength is a common starting dose. A doctor-prescribed, once-daily option helping people keep recurrent gout under control.
Active: Febuxostat 40mg per tablet.
Directions for Use
This is a prescription medicine for long-term prevention, not for treating a sudden attack. Take only as directed by your doctor. Usually one tablet once daily, with or without food, at the same time each day. When first starting, your doctor may also give an anti-inflammatory or colchicine for some weeks, because uric acid levels shifting can trigger an attack early on. Keep taking it every day, even when you have no symptoms, and attend uric-acid blood checks.
Do not stop during a gout attack. Keep taking it and treat the attack separately as your doctor advises. Attacks may temporarily increase in the first months; this does not mean it is failing. Tell your doctor about heart, liver or kidney problems. Stop and seek urgent care for any rash, especially with fever or blistering, which can rarely be serious. Drink plenty of fluids. Use in pregnancy or breastfeeding only on advice. Store below 30°C. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice.
