Nop. Do not increase the dose before 14 days of treatment (4 days more). After that recheck blood uric acid level. If it is still high, then you can increase to 40 mg two times a day! thanks.

Mr Rakesh Kumar, Thanks for the query.

And some people with a high uric acid level also develop high blood pressure, heart disease or chronic kidney disease, but it's often unclear whether th...more

Creatinine, thyroid function tests, fasting sugar and ecg should be done annually and bp check at regular intervals
other tests are less useful
febuget is required only for those with gout. Itâs not very helpful if taken just for blood level. In your case uric acid rise is side effect of bp medicines. Better to change bp medicines than to add medicines similarly many people are prescribed thyroid medicine for elevation of tsh in blood. Always better to keep long term medicines minimum ...more
