Febuget 80 Tablet

Description

Overview:
Febuget 80 Tablet is a prescription medicine containing Febuxostat, used in the treatment of chronic gout. Gout occurs when uric acid builds up in the blood, forming crystals that deposit in joints, leading to pain, swelling, and redness. Febuxostat works by inhibiting xanthine oxidase, an enzyme responsible for uric acid production, thereby preventing gout attacks and protecting joints and kidneys.

Uses:

• Long-term management of gout

• Prevention of recurrent gout attacks

• Reduces uric acid buildup, lowering the risk of joint damage and kidney stones

How to Use:

• Take this medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water, with or without food.

• Take at the same time every day to maintain consistent uric acid control.

• Do not stop the medicine suddenly, even if you feel well, unless advised by your doctor.

Precautions:

• Use only under medical supervision.

• Inform your doctor if you have liver problems, kidney disease, or heart conditions.

• Not suitable for patients with severe heart disease unless prescribed.

• Avoid alcohol and high-purine foods (red meat, shellfish, organ meats) as they may increase uric acid levels.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should use it only if prescribed.

• Regular monitoring of uric acid and liver function may be required.

Possible Side Effects:

• Headache, nausea, or diarrhea

• Joint pain (may appear initially as uric acid levels normalize)

• Abnormal liver function test results

• Rash, dizziness, or fatigue

• Rare: chest pain, heart problems, or severe allergic reaction (seek immediate care)

• Febuget 80 Tablet is available only with a valid doctor’s prescription.
