The dosage of Febuxostat and the duration of prophylactic therapy after uric acid reduction depend on the individual patient's needs and response to treatment. The decision should be made by a doctor who is aware of the patient's full health situation.
Usually, in chronic gout, Febuxostat should be used at a dose of 40-80 mg once a day in combination with the prevention of gout attacks (e.g. with low-dose colchicine or NSAIDs). Such therapy can last up to 6 months.
It is important to consult your doctor regularly and follow their recommendations. Do not change your dose or stop treatment without consulting your doctor.
The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book the medicine at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it after presenting a prescription:
