Overview Alur 100mg Tablet

GoutGuard 100mg tablets effectively manage and prevent gout, a condition arising from excessive uric acid crystallization in joints and kidneys, causing pain. This medication lowers uric acid levels. Take GoutGuard 100mg after meals, consistently following your doctor's instructions, even during symptom-free periods. Stopping treatment can worsen symptoms due to renewed crystal formation. Dietary adjustments and ample fluid intake are also beneficial. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, elevated SGOT, SGPT, and alkaline phosphatase levels. Your physician can advise on mitigating these. Seek immediate medical help for severe allergic reactions. Report persistent nausea, jaundice, or dark urine (possible liver problems) to your doctor immediately. Before starting GoutGuard, inform your doctor of any history of heart failure, cardiac issues, stroke, kidney or liver disease, or thyroid disorders. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding; consult your doctor. Regular blood tests will monitor liver function.
