| Description |
Gout is a disease that occurs by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals (MSU) in body tissues, especially around joints [A175942]. This disease has been well-documented in historical medical records and appears in the biographies of several prominent, historically recognized individuals [A175942].
Allopurinol is a xanthine oxidase enzyme inhibitor that is considered to be one of the most effective drugs used to decrease urate levels and is frequently used in the treatment of chronic gout [A36705]. It was initially approved by the FDA in 1966 [L5674] and is now formulated by several manufacturers [L5677]. |
| Indications and Usage |
For the treatment of hyperuricemia associated with primary or secondary gout. Also indicated for the treatment of primary or secondary uric acid nephropathy, with or without the symptoms of gout, as well as chemotherapy-induced hyperuricemia and recurrent renal calculi. |
