What is Zurig 40 Tab used for?

Treatment of chronic hyperuricemia in gout (to lower elevated uric acid levels and prevent gout flares). Not for treatment of acute gout attack.

How Zurig 40 Tab Works

Febuxostat is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor. It reduces formation of uric acid in the body, thereby lowering serum urate levels and helping prevent urate crystal deposition and gout attacks over time.

Dosage & Directions

Tablet for oral use. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily, with or without food. Continue regularly even if you feel well; gout flare prophylaxis (e.g., colchicine/NSAID) may be advised when starting. Do not use to treat an acute gout attack.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.

Key Benefits

Lowers serum uric acid
Prevents recurrent gout attacks with continued use
Helps reduce urate crystal deposition/tophi over time
Suitable once-daily dosing

Pregnancy

Consult doctor (not recommended unless clearly needed)

Alcohol Interaction

Use with caution (alcohol can increase uric acid and trigger gout attacks)
