Low Vitamin D and High Uric Acid
I was on intermittent fasting in February, I ate only one time a day. In March I wasn't feeling well so consulted the doctor, he asked me to do certain blood tests. In these tests I found that I have Vitamin D deficiency with value of 5.3 only so I was asked to take Neuro D3 once a week for the next 18 weeks. Also, I have high uric acid with value 7.3 so I visited a nephrologist and he asked me to consume Febuxostat Tablet(Febutaz 40) for 15 days.
I was worried seeing the side affects of Febutaz tablet, I wanted to know if it is safe to take it for 15 days
Also, I am a vegetarian and following a healthy diet and exercising regularly after knowing that my uric acid was high

You to get treated for both vitamin D deficiency and high uric acid. Febuxostat is now the preferred drug for treating high uric acid and is usually a safe drug. If u develop any symptoms after taking febuxostat, report to your nephrologist or consult me on Practo.
