The prevention of gout requires the control of blood uric acid, can be taken orally to promote uric acid excretion drugs, inhibit uric acid production drugs to reduce uric acid.
Gout is a purine metabolism disorders and (or) uric acid excretion disorder triggered by the disease, elevated blood uric acid is the basis of the development of gout. The mechanism of elevated blood uric acid mainly includes excessive production or reduced excretion of uric acid, for the pathogenesis, oral drug therapy.
1. Promote uric acid excretion drugs: commonly used drugs such as benzbromarone can inhibit the reabsorption of urate in the proximal renal tubule, increase uric acid excretion, reduce blood uric acid and prevent gout.
2. Drugs that inhibit uric acid production: common drugs such as allopurinol, febuxostat, etc., can inhibit xanthine oxidase, so that the production of uric acid is reduced, reduce uric acid, prevent gout.
