People with a genetic family history of gout, taking special medications, frequent intake of high-purine foods, and alcohol drinkers are all at high risk for gout. 1. People with genetic family history of gout: If there is a family history of gout, it will lead to an increased chance of suffering from gout. 2. Taking special drugs: If you take drugs such as cyclosporine, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, niacin, etc., it may affect the uric acid excretion ability of the kidneys, thus increasing the chances of suffering from gout. 3. Frequent intake of high-purine food: long-term intake of meat, animal offal and part of the seafood will lead to high purine content in the diet, which can be broken down by the body into uric acid, thus inducing gout. 4. Alcohol consumption: excessive alcohol intake is also one of the causes of gout, because alcohol contains a large number of purines. Gout patients are advised to go to the rheumatology and immunology department of regular hospitals for detailed consultation and standardized treatment as prescribed by doctors.
