ZYRIK 300

Description

Zyrik 300 Tablet is a prescription medicine manufactured by Cipla Ltd. It contains Allopurinol (300mg), a xanthine oxidase inhibitor widely used in the management of gout and chronic hyperuricemia (high uric acid levels in the blood).

How it Works:
Allopurinol works by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase, which is responsible for uric acid production. When uric acid levels are too high, they can crystallize in the joints and kidneys, leading to gout attacks, joint inflammation, stiffness, and uric acid kidney stones. By reducing uric acid production, Zyrik 300 helps to control these symptoms and prevent future complications.

Uses of Zyrik 300:

• Long-term treatment and prevention of gout attacks

• Management of chronic hyperuricemia

• Prevention of uric acid kidney stones

• Used to control uric acid levels during cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy

Key Benefits:

• Effectively lowers uric acid levels in patients with severe hyperuricemia

• Prevents recurrent and painful gout flare-ups

• Protects kidneys from stone formation and damage caused by uric acid buildup

• Improves joint health and mobility in patients with chronic gout

Dosage & Administration:

• Generally prescribed as one tablet daily after meals, with a full glass of water, or as directed by the physician.

• Adequate hydration is strongly recommended to reduce the risk of kidney stones.

• The dosage may vary depending on serum uric acid levels and patient response.

Safety & Precautions:

• To be taken only under medical supervision.

• Patients with liver or kidney disorders should use it cautiously.

• Possible side effects include skin rash, stomach upset, diarrhea, drowsiness, or liver enzyme changes.

• Regular monitoring of serum uric acid, liver function, and kidney function may be required during prolonged treatment.

• Not recommended in pregnant or breastfeeding women unless prescribed by a doctor.

• Avoid alcohol and high-purine foods (like red meat, seafood, and organ meats), as they can worsen gout.
