Hi, I have had a high Uric acid (7.2) and also felt joint pain specially in ankle area before 2 year and doctor prescribed febustat 40 mg. After intake febustat 40 mg for 6 months uric acid level comes down to 4.2 (checked blood test) and continued 1 year. Seeing the level of Uric acid and as I was taking since long time, I deliberately stopped the febustat 40 since last six months w/o asking doctor. But since couple of weeks I am facing again ankle pain, back pain. Under this circumstances I took 1 strip of febustat 40 again and pain issue resolves 50%.Please suggest, my next step apart from consulting the doctor (that I am planning) Regards Dipak.
