Uric acid 480μmol/L requires oral treatment with uric acid-lowering drugs on the basis of diet and exercise that cannot be controlled.
Fasting serum uric acid level >420μmol/L measured 2 times not on the same day meets the criteria for diagnosis of hyperuricemia. When the uric acid level is 480umol/L, the first step is to control the level of uric acid through lifestyle changes.
Strictly limit the intake of high-purine foods, such as animal offal, seafood, hot pot, limit the intake of alcohol and sugary drinks, and drink more water to promote uric acid excretion. At the same time, you can choose moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, such as walking, jogging, Tai Chi, square dance and so on.
If diet and exercise fail to reduce uric acid level, you need to take medication under the guidance of a doctor to reduce uric acid level, such as benzbromarone, febuxostat and so on.
If uric acid level increases, you need to consult the rheumatology and immunology department and follow the doctor’s instructions for reasonable treatment.
