How Zyloric 100 Tablet Works

Allopurinol inhibits xanthine oxidase, the enzyme responsible for converting hypoxanthine and xanthine into uric acid. This reduces uric acid production and lowers serum and urinary urate levels, helping prevent crystal deposition and gout flares over time.

Dosage & Directions

Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily after food to reduce stomach upset. Swallow with water and maintain good hydration. Do not stop suddenly; it is not used to treat an acute gout attack—continue during attacks if already on it, as advised by the doctor.

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