Is uric acid 470 serious in young people

Whether uric acid 470umol/L is serious when it occurs in young people needs to be analyzed according to different circumstances. When young people do not have other metabolic syndromes, such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and no acute attack of gout, uric acid 470umol/L is not serious. It is only necessary to pay attention to adhere to a low purine diet, drink more water and exercise appropriately in general to help uric acid excretion, and pay attention to regular monitoring of uric acid level. If uric acid can be controlled below 420umol/L, no special treatment is needed. However, if the patient also has a combination of other serious heart disease, kidney disease or has already had a gout attack, uric acid 470umol/L will require treatment, including life precautions, as well as treatment with uric acid-lowering drugs.
