ZYRIK 100

Description

Zyrik 100 Tablet is a prescription medicine manufactured by Cipla Ltd. It contains Allopurinol (100mg) as its active ingredient and is primarily used for the management of gout and hyperuricemia (high uric acid levels in the blood).

How it Works:
Allopurinol belongs to the group of medicines known as xanthine oxidase inhibitors. It works by reducing the production of uric acid in the body. Excess uric acid can crystallize in the joints, kidneys, and tissues, leading to painful conditions such as gout attacks, joint swelling, stiffness, and kidney stones. By lowering uric acid levels, Zyrik 100 helps prevent these complications and provides long-term relief.

Uses of Zyrik 100:

• Treatment and prevention of gout attacks

• Management of chronic hyperuricemia

• Prevention of uric acid kidney stones

• Helps control uric acid buildup during chemotherapy or cancer treatment

Key Benefits:

• Effectively lowers uric acid levels in the blood

• Prevents painful gout flare-ups

• Reduces risk of kidney stones caused by uric acid

• Improves joint mobility and quality of life in gout patients

Dosage & Administration:

• Usually prescribed as one tablet daily after meals with plenty of water, or as directed by the physician.

• Adequate hydration is strongly recommended to prevent kidney stone formation.

• The dose may be adjusted depending on the patient’s serum uric acid levels and clinical response.

Safety & Precautions:
