USES: This medication is a combination of 2 ingredients: lesinurad and allopurinol. It works by decreasing the amount of uric acid your body makes, and by helping the kidneys get rid of uric acid. Increased uric acid levels can cause gout attacks. This combination medication is used to lower uric acid when allopurinol alone has not worked well enough. This effect helps prevent gout flares/attacks.

Indications : prevention of acute gout attack

Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day. If you are switching from taking lesinurad or allopurinol to this combination product, be sure to stop taking the other lesinurad or allopurinol product to avoid taking too much medication(s) and increasing the risk of side effects.

This medication is not for treating gout attacks. Your doctor may prescribe other medication (including colchicine, NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen, or indomethacin) to prevent or treat a gout attack while you are taking this medication. Continue to take lesinurad/allopurinol and your prescribed medicines for gout attacks as directed by your doctor. Tell your doctor if your condition does not get better or if it gets worse.
