Start Uric Acid Cure Summary

If you meet the criteria for starting to cure excess uric acid, the standard medication is allopurinol. But it must be started at a low dose of 50 to 100 mg per day. Rheumatologists also recommend that you consider some lifestyle changes.

Other shared decisions about starting uric acid cures, include considering alternatives if allopurinol is not appropriate for you. That can include:

  • Choosing alternative medicines to allopurinol
  • Considering intensive diet and lifestyle changes with the help of a qualified dietitian
  • Consulting a Complementary and Integrative Health Therapist for other alternatives to allopurinol

Remember that whichever approach you choose for curing uric acid, you must start with this initial low dose phase. Then continue through the adjustment and maintenance phases.
