Allopurinol Tablets are used to treat the following conditions:

• Gout (increased uric acid quantity in the body). The uric acid builds up in your joints and tendons as crystals causing an inflammatory reaction. The inflammation causes the skin around certain joints to become swollen, tender and sore when only slightly touched. You may also get severe pain when the joint is moved.
• Kidney stones formation and certain other types of kidney diseases due to increase in the amount of uric acid in the body
• Some types of Cancer due to increase in the amount of uric acid in the body
• Enzyme disorders due to increase in the amount of uric acid in the body

What is Gout?

Gout is a type of arthritis that causes sudden, severe joint pain

The blood test will find out how much of a chemical called uric acid there is in your blood.

Having too much uric acid in your blood can lead to crystals forming around your joints, which causes pain.

Attacks of gout are usually treated with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) like ibuprofen.

How can you reduce further attacks of gout?

Gout can come back every few months or it may be years. It can come back more often if it’s not treated.

If you have frequent attacks or high levels of uric acid in your blood, you may need to take uric acid-lowering medicine.

Making lifestyle changes may mean you can stop or reduce further attacks.

DO

  • get to a healthy weight, but avoid crash diets – try the NHS weight loss plan

  • eat a healthy, balanced diet – your doctor may give you a list of foods to include or limit

  • have some alcohol-free days each week

  • drink plenty of fluids to avoid getting dehydrated

  • exercise regularly – but avoid intense exercise or putting lots of pressure on joints

  • stop smoking

  • ask our pharmacist about vitamin C supplements

DON’T

  • do not eat offal, such as kidneys or liver, or seafood

  • do not have lots of sugary drinks and snacks

  • do not eat lots of fatty foods

  • do not drink more than 14 units of alcohol a week, and spread your drinking over 3 or more days if you drink as much as 14 units

You might get an attack if you:

  • have an illness that causes a high temperature
  • drink too much alcohol or eat a very large, fatty meal
  • get dehydrated
  • injure a joint
  • take certain medicines

Get treatment immediately if you feel an attack starting.

Gout sometimes runs in families.

It’s more common in men, especially as they get older.

You might have a higher chance of getting gout if you:

  • are overweight
  • drink alcohol
  • have been through the menopause
  • take medicines such as diuretics (water tablets), or medicines for high blood pressure (such as ACE inhibitors)
  • have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, kidney problems, osteoarthritis or diabetes
  • have had surgery or an injury
