Product Details of Febutaz 40 mg Tablet
Hyperuricemia is a disease that causes gout and urinary stones when the uric acid level exceeds a certain level.
Uric acid is a type of waste product produced mainly from purines, which are abundant in meat and fish and shellfish. However, the total amount of uric acid may increase if the body’s purines are excessively increased or if the excretory function is impaired due to decreased renal function.
As a result, uric acid levels rise, leading to hyperuricemia. Since purines are a component contained in foods, it is easy to think that the cause of hyperuricemia is dietary habits, but there are also cases where it is caused by genetic factors. In addition, if this condition persists for a long time, the risk of developing gout increases.
Gout is a disease that accumulates in the body and causes severe pain in a seizure due to crystallized uric acid.
In particular, symptoms tend to appear at the base of the toes, and it has a history of being named gout because “it hurts severely just by being blown by the wind. ” For some people, the symptoms will subside spontaneously in about a week, but if you are not careful and neglect to treat them, they may become severe and relapse.
In addition, if crystallized uric acid accumulates in the kidneys, it may cause urinary tract stones and renal disorders, and if it is combined with lifestyle-related diseases, it may cause diseases other than gout, such as arteriosclerosis. Febutaz 40mg inhibits the production of uric acid to treat and prevent hyperuricemia and gout.
This product is recommended for those who have high uric acid levels and are worried about gout, and those who are suffering from gout symptoms right now.
Effect of Febutaz 40 mg
Febutaz 40 mg contains febuxostat and lowers high uric acid levels in the blood. It helps prevent uric acid crystal formation, reduces gout attacks, relieves joint pain and swelling, and supports long-term management of gout when taken regularly as prescribed.

The active ingredient Febuxostat 40mg inhibits the action of xanthine oxidase, an enzyme required for the production of uric acid.
