High uric acid level

2016-03-04 04:32:49
My current uric acid level is 7.5. It stays under control if I take febuxostat as told by doctor. It increases once I stop taking medicine. Should I have to be dependent on medicine lifelong ? Should I have to follow dietry guidelines to control uric acid through out my life?
