Also recommended using daily meds to keep my uric avid levels down. Anyone have experience with Allopurinol? |
I'm on Allopurinal and have been on it for about 4 months now. I take 1 200mg pill in the morning with no side fx so far! It's like what Cornering said with it just lowering uric acid, but it could surprisingly also cause an attack when initially taking it, lol.
I used to take Indomethacin for attacks, but it suddenly made me pretty sick so I couldn't take it anymore. Cochicine is my go to med now for when attacks happen, and it has done wonders for when it has happened. You should inquire about them with the doc.
