U can stop the medications and also if needed consult the local Orthopedic or Rheumatologist. .
Avoid Alcohol and High Protein diet such as Non Vegetarian foods to keep Uric Acid in Check. .
Repeat Serum Uric acid levels if u have similar complaints again after consultation.
Stay hydrated and exercise on regular basis.

Depends on what indication the medication was prescribed for. If you had typical gouty arthritis, or uric acid kidney stones or renal failure then you should consult the concerned specialist. If you had none of these problems, then there is no indication for taking zyloric

Consult a Rheumatologist for uric acid related arthritis (gout)

High uric acid causes gouty arthritis. Its a form of body metabolism error. You will need long term monitoring and medication. Dietary restrictions are required
