Furic 80 Tablet is used to prevent severe gout attacks or flares. It contains Febuxostat, which reduces the level of uric acid in your body. Thus, it reduces the inflammation caused by uric acid crystals in affected joints, thereby reducing pain, swelling and inflammation. It may cause common side effects such as nausea, rash, dizziness, diarrhoea, pain, inaccurate liver function test results, gout flare-ups (intense joint pain that comes on suddenly, often in the middle of the night), and localised swelling due to retention of fluids in tissues (oedema). Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Include more glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D, and calcium-enriched supplements. Turmeric and fish can also help reduce inflammation in the tissue.

  • Please do not go for heavy exercise as it may increase your joint pain and arthritis. Instead, you can do low-impact aerobic movements like walking on a treadmill and swimming. You can also strengthen your muscles by lifting light weights.
  • Your sitting posture is important, especially when you have pain and inflammation. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short duration of time. Long-term immobility is harmful in conditions like arthritis. Use a back support like a rolled-up towel to minimise pain at the back of your spine curve. Keep your knees and hips at a right angle. You can also use a footrest if required.
  • Avoid a high purine-rich diet, including organ meats (kidneys, liver, and sweetbreads) and oily fish (sardines, anchovies, and herring).
  • Limit meat in favour of plant-based proteins like beans and legumes.
  • Eat complex carbohydrates, such as whole-grain bread, fruits, and vegetables, rather than sugary sweets and refined carbohydrates like white bread.
  • Avoid drinking beer and alcoholic beverages, and drink plenty of water or other nonalcoholic beverages.
