Febutaz 80 MG Tablet Health Feed

Asked for male, 46 years old from Mysore

Sir /madam, I get joint pains sometimes. The pain will be in one or two minor joints. Rarely I had pain in Major Joint like Knee. Very rarely I had pain in the big toe. My observation is I get pain whenever I eat High Purine foods. If I do not take High Purine foods, I will be almost alright. My uric acid level has never exceeded 5.0. One magic thing that occurs to me is, if I take 80 mg of Febuxostat immediately (that is within 30 mins) after eating High Purine foods, I will not get the joint pain next day. If I take Febuxostat after 30 mins of consuming High Purine Foods I am sure to get joint pain next day. My feet swelling occurs if I eat potatoes and sweet potatoes. Is it gout without hyperuricemia. What is the remedy for this. Ghee is suppose to be good for joint pain in general. But in my case, even two drops of Ghee causes, joint pain next day. Ghee almost acts like a high purine food for me. Is my condition gout without hyperuricemia. What is the remedy? How do you explain my sensitivity to ghee and potatoes.

Avoid Squatting-
Quadriceps Exercises- Lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain.

Asked for male, 38 years old from Patna

In 2017 I got 1st attack with severe pain in my right foot and swelling with uric acid level 10.8. I was on zyloric 100 1*3 for 1.5 months. Thereafter I got similar attack after every 6 months with uric acid level 9 and 9.5. Recently in may 2020 I got the most severe attack. I am on febutaz 40 for the past 3 months. But even I am on medication pain again started occurring in my foot after subsiding first. I am not taking high purine food as spinach tomatoes, paneer, red meat, egg, milk etc. I walk 30 minutes everyday. I am not understanding why my uric acid level is still increasing while I am on febutaz 40. My creatinine level is 1.13 and egfr is 90. My doctor has said that my kidney is ok although my cholesterol level is slightly high with level 201 and my triglyceride is 232 and my liver is very bmild fatty. please suggest.

Dear lybrate-user,
as you have developed symptomatic gouty arthritis with high uric acid levels it is likely that you have a genetic tendency for high uric acid levels.
You need to avoid nuts, wine and red meat and drink 3-4 litres of water every day. If in spite of dietary modification the problem persists you may have to adjust the dose of febutaz to optimize uric acid levels.

Then I controlled my diet last week uric acid level was 4.5 just by diet control now last night I started getting pain in one knee. On left ligament side and today in hand elbow? what can be the reason for this? what should I do?

I notice your weight is on the higher side, hence you may ask your doctor about GPL-1 agonist which will not only help you to control diabetes but would be very helpful in reducing your weight. Unfortunately, these medicines are expensive
