High Uric acid level

2022-01-12 11:02:43
I am taking the medicine Febustat 40mg for my uric acid problem. I take this medicine every alternate day. If I don't take this medicine my uric acid levels go high and might end up with some gout attack. I had faced 2 gout attacks in the past. Should I continue with Febustat? Is it ok to take it every alternate day? Please suggest
