I have been taking FEBUTRIX-40 tablets (one each day) for control of Uric acid level in blood for two months.The Uric acid level in blood has fallen to 4 from 6.6.Doctor has advised me to continue use of this medicine for another 3 months.I am keen to know whether this will have any adverse effect due to long usage. ## You should take the medication as long as your doctor deems it safe and appropriate for you. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and diarrhea. Are you on any other medications? How often do you experience flares of gout?

I was diabetic 2 and in the beginning prescribed Glipermide and Metformin but later it was suggested Metformin is not suitable if Uric acid is 1.5 or more, I had to stop it and was taking Glyciphage G1 but did not control sugar. I was suggested to take Insulin (First Insulatard and then Novomix 30) and Trajenta 5. This helped in controlling sugar to some extent. But some times I had spurt of FBS and RBS. PlS suggest any recent medicine for Diab 2 ## Does novamix 30 works better with metmorfin or with glimpride since I discussed with people they shared it works better results

I have been taking this medication for years to control blood pressure and water retention for salt in my body.Now I am having trouble with gout. I read that this medication can cause gout, is this one of the side effects. ## Have you consulted your doctor? Chlorthalidone has been known to cause high levels of uric acid in the blood, but gout rarely occurs. However, you should consult your doctor to make sure that it is gout and to get to the root of the cause. Learn more about Chlorthalidone Details

I've been taking Combizar for quite sometime now to control my BP. Few weeks later, I experienced joint pain in toes and ankles. ## Combizar contains the active ingredient Losartan, it is an ARB used to help treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions. These medications have been known to cause an increase in uric acid levels in the body, which can result in gout. Have you contacted your doctor, yet? This is probably not the right medication for you and you will need to be switched to something else. ## is it ok to combine combizar 50mg to metformin , i was diagnose with high blood sugar, i am also hypertensive taking combizar as my maintenance, but the doctor change it to captopril , i've read that the side effect of captopril is cough, i'm experiencing cough for almos...
