In order to lessen pain and swelling during gout flare-ups, doctors frequently prescribe NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen), colchicine, or a brief course of corticosteroids. Allopurinol or febuxostat may be administered to reduce uric acid for long-term control; your mother should consult her doctor for appropriate dosage and monitoring.
