Informação do produto

Uma melhor saúde começa com as escolhas certas.

Allopurinol is a medication from the group of xanthine oxidase inhibitors, used to lower high levels of uric acid in the body. It helps prevent problems like gout (a type of joint pain caused by uric acid crystals) and uric acid kidney stones. Unlike painkillers, it doesn’t relieve pain directly, but works to prevent future flare-ups by reducing the production of uric acid.

Allopurinol blocks a chemical process in the body that normally turns substances into uric acid. By slowing this process down, it helps keep uric acid levels low. This allows existing crystals to gradually dissolve and helps stop new ones from forming.

It is mainly used for people with chronic high uric acid levels, especially those who have repeated gout attacks or kidney stones. In some cases, it’s also used when uric acid levels rise due to other health conditions or treatments.

Allopurinol doesn’t work right away—it takes a few days to start lowering uric acid levels and up to 1–2 weeks for full effect. For best results, it should be taken every day with food and with plenty of fluids (at least 2 liters a day).

The biggest benefit of using Allopurinol is preventing gout attacks and kidney issues over the long term. It is generally well tolerated, but mild skin rashes or other rare allergic reactions may occur in some people.
