Product Description:
Urimate 40 Tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat and prevent gout, a type of arthritis that occurs when excess uric acid in the body forms crystals in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and inflammation. The medicine helps maintain healthy uric acid levels in the blood, thereby preventing gout attacks and related complications.
Urimate 40 Tablet contains Febuxostat, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor that works by blocking the enzyme responsible for uric acid production. By lowering uric acid levels, it helps prevent the formation of uric acid crystals in joints and kidneys, reducing pain and improving mobility.
Regular use of Urimate 40 Tablet, as prescribed by your doctor, helps prevent recurrent gout attacks. Lifestyle modifications such as maintaining hydration, limiting alcohol, and reducing intake of purine-rich foods (like red meat and seafood) can further improve treatment outcomes.
