Febuxostat was approved in 2009 for the treatment of chronic hyperuricemia. Compared with the traditional treatment drug allopurinol, febuxostat is more effective in reducing uric acid. The most common adverse reactions are abnormal liver function, diarrhea and rash. What precautions should patients with gout take while taking febuxostat?

1. Do not overdose: When using febuxostat to treat gout, you must pay attention to the dosage. Medications cannot be taken in excess. Otherwise, the physical harm caused will be more obvious. Therefore, it is necessary to choose an appropriate dose of drugs according to the severity of gout to prevent gout from getting worse or causing side effects. 

2. Start with a low dose: In order to avoid increasing the risk of heart disease by taking febuxostat regularly, you should start with a low dose of the drug while taking the drug. This prevents the body from suddenly being flooded with drugs and causing side effects. Therefore, you need to take medication step by step and do not take a large amount of medication at one time. 

3. Pay attention to the medication time: When using febuxostat to treat gout, you need to pay attention to the correct medication time. If you always use medication indiscriminately and blindly, it may lead to other side effects. If the medication needs to be taken on an empty stomach, it is best to take the medication before meals to have the best effect. If the medicine needs to be taken after a meal, it needs to be taken half an hour after eating so that the medicine can be effective and reduce side effects. 

4. Do not use a single drug for a long time: When taking febuxostat to treat gout, you need to avoid using this drug alone for a long time. Many people do not understand the changes in uric acid and whether side effects occur when taking this drug. The side effects of using a certain drug alone may be more obvious. Therefore, after using the drug for a period of time, the uric acid level should be checked in time. If the uric acid level decreases, change to other drugs with less side effects to improve it. 

5. Do not use multiple drugs together: When taking febuxostat to treat gout, you need to pay attention to many taboos, and the drugs cannot be used indiscriminately. If secondary hyperuricemia occurs, it is prohibited to use febuxostat with other drugs in order to reduce physical damage.
