Hi, welcome to HCM.
Zyloric and febuxostat, both are prescibed for high uric acid level in blood.
Febuxostat is better alternative to zyloric with less allergic side effect.
So, continue with febuxostat for atleast 3-4 months and then check uric acid level.
It is necessary to continue this tablet if someone has recurrent attacks of gout.
Maintain adequate hydration.
I think this would be helpful to you.
Best wishes. TC.
