What is Allopurinol?

Allopurinol is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor that is used to reduce the levels of uric acid in your blood and urine. When your body makes more uric acid than your kidneys can filter out, it can build up and cause urate crystals to form in and around your joints. Uric acid buildup can also lead to kidney stones.

Reducing the uric acid levels will help reduce symptoms of gout such as swollen and painful joints. When you first start allopurinol, your gout attacks may worsen or become more frequent. It can take several months before you see the full benefit from allopurinol. Regular allopurinol use can reduce the number of these attacks and prevent damage to your joints.

It can also lower your chance of having recurrent kidney stones.
