WHAT FEBUXOSTAT PINEWOOD IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Febuxostat Pinewood tablets contain the active substance febuxostat
and are used to treat gout, which
is associated with an excess of a chemical called uric acid (urate) in
the body. In some people, the
amount of uric acid builds up in the blood and may become too high to
remain soluble. When this
happens, urate crystals may form in and around the joints and kidneys.
These crystals can cause
sudden, severe pain, redness, warmth and swelling in a joint (known as
a gout attack). Left untreated,
larger deposits called tophi may form in and around joints. These
tophi may cause joint and bone
damage.
Febuxostat Pinewood works by reducing uric acid levels. Keeping uric
acid levels low by taking
Febuxostat Pinewood once every day stops crystals building up, and
over time it reduces symptoms.
Keeping uric acid levels sufficiently low for a long enough period can
also shrink tophi.
Febuxostat Pinewood 120 mg tablets are also used to treat and prevent
high blood levels of uric acid
that may occur when you start to
