Feburic (febuxostat) is used long-term for gout—a type of arthritis that causes severe joint pain and swelling. It works by lowering the levels of uric acid in your body, which is what causes attacks of gout. So by lowering your uric acid levels, Feburic helps prevent these attacks while also reducing pain and inflammation in your joints.
When you have gout, your body makes too much uric acid, leading to development of painful uric acid crystals in your joints. Feburic works by slowing down a specific process in your body that creates uric acid. By doing this, it helps lower the amount of uric acid in your blood, which prevents these painful crystals from forming in your joints. This helps reduce the chances of gout attacks and makes your joints less swollen and painful.
By maintaining lower uric acid levels consistently over time, Feburic helps in preventing the recurrence of painful gout attacks and reduces the frequency and severity of these episodes. Gout is a chronic condition that requires long-term management. Prolonged and continuous treatment with Feburic can help you manage the symptoms of gout effectively, improving quality of life by reducing the pain, swelling, and joint damage associated with gout.
Feburic tablets come in three doses of 20mg, 40mg, and 80mg. Your doctor may start you off with a lower dose, which can be increased if necessary. Your recommended dosage will depend on how severe your uric acid buildup is and how frequent your attacks are.

Take Feburic exactly as your doctor tells you to, and stick to your prescribed dose and schedule. Take your medicine regularly. If you forget a dose, take it when you remember, unless it's almost time for the next one. Let your doctor know about any other medications, vitamins, or supplements you're taking. This helps prevent any potential interactions.
Drink plenty of fluids as advised by your doctor. Staying well-hydrated is helpful. Gout management often requires ongoing treatment, so keep taking Feburic as directed, even if you start feeling better (unless your doctor advises otherwise).
It differs for each person, but Feburic is a treatment that needs to be taken long-term, so it can take anywhere up to six months before you see a change. In some cases, your uric acid levels could go up in the first month or two, causing a brief spike in gout symptoms, but don't stress—it's a normal part of getting better. The key is to keep up with the treatment so you can see its full benefit.
Stopping Feburic could lead to new crystals forming, which might bring back gout attacks and worsen your condition.
