Alcohol should not be consumed even after gout is cured, as it promotes elevated uric acid and the development of gout. Drinking alcohol is not recommended after gout is cured, because alcohol is one of the important factors that promote hyperuricemia and the development of gout. On the one hand, alcohol, especially beer, produces a large amount of purines during the production process, so beer intake will increase the uric acid level in the body and promote the occurrence of hyperuricemia and gout. On the other hand, alcohol intake will inhibit the uric acid excretion function of the kidneys, thus decreasing the excretion of uric acid. Alcohol also promotes the conversion of purine nucleotides and accelerates uric acid production. At the same time, most of the time when drinking alcohol will be accompanied by the intake of high purine diet, blood uric acid will be further elevated. The above factors can lead to the development of hyperuricemia and gout, so it is not recommended to drink alcohol after gout is cured. Gout patients are advised to go to the rheumatology and immunology department of regular hospitals in a timely manner, and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
