Why do you have high uric acid if you don’t eat seafood or drink beer?

Patients who do not eat seafood and do not drink beer have high uric acid may be due to disease, drugs, heredity or congenital enzyme defects and other factors.
1. Disease: erythrocytosis, acute and chronic leukemia, hemolytic anemia and other hematologic diseases patients due to the body’s cellular nucleic acid decomposition can lead to elevated uric acid. In addition, renal tubular disease, renal insufficiency and other renal diseases can lead to uric acid excretion obstacles and cause uric acid elevation.
2. Drugs: patients taking furosemide, aspirin, vitamin B12, tacrolimus, pyrazinamide and other drugs can be due to the decomposition of these drugs, metabolism and the formation of organic acids and uric acid to form a competitive excretion channel, resulting in reduced excretion of uric acid caused by patients with blood uric acid rise.
3. Genetic or congenital enzyme defects: there are hypoxanthine – guanine phosphoribosyltransferase defects, familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy and other congenital enzyme defects in patients can appear blood uric acid elevation, in addition to some of the patients with elevated blood uric acid may be genetically related.
Patients who do not eat seafood and do not drink beer may also have other causes of elevated blood uric acid, patients can go to the regular hospital endocrinology, rheumatology and immunology departments and other related departments for detailed consultation.
