Can lvasa increase risk or cause Gout??? ## From what I am reading, the purines that are present in some types of fish, which can worsen or cause gout should not be in the purified fish oil that it is the supplements, so it should not be a problem to use them. Has your doctor advised you to do so?

Pentostatin
Pentostatin (or deoxycoformycin, trade name Nipent, manufactured by SuperGen) is an anticancer chemotherapeutic drug.[1] Mechanism It is classified as a purine analog, which is a type of antimetabolite. It mimics the nucleoside adenosine and thus inhibits the enzyme adenosine deaminase, interfering with the cell's ability to process DNA.[2] Cancer cells generally divide more often than healthy cells; DNA is highly involved in cell division (mitosis) and drug...

tan capsule ## Sorry, nothing listed under this, could you please double check the imprint? ## I have found a broken pill with G650 written on it with a bit of tan powder remaining in my dog's Purina Dog Food container.
