What is Zurig 80MG Tab used for?

Treatment of chronic hyperuricemia in patients with gout; helps lower elevated uric acid levels to prevent gout attacks and urate crystal deposition.

How Zurig 80MG Tab Works

Febuxostat is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor that blocks the enzyme responsible for producing uric acid. This reduces serum uric acid levels and helps prevent formation and deposition of urate crystals in joints and tissues.

Dosage & Directions

Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily, with or without food. Continue regularly even if gout flares occur; a flare-prevention medicine (e.g., colchicine/NSAID) may be prescribed during initiation. Do not stop without medical advice.

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

Key Benefits

Lowers high uric acid levels
Helps prevent recurrent gout attacks over time
Reduces urate crystal deposition and tophi risk
Suitable option for patients not controlled on allopurinol (as advised)

Pregnancy

Consult doctor

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