I was taking Zyloric tab 100 OD for last 3 years. Uric acid which was around 8.2 before is around 5.2 for the last 2 years. Now the doctor has prescribed tab febutaz 40 OD in place of Zyloric. Have i to take either of it as my uric acid is OK? If yes, which one is better?

Hello,
%.2 Uric acid levels are good compared to your previous reports. I would suggest you to continue Febutaz since we find it more effective and safer in patients than Zyloric. Please continue to drink plenty of water alongside.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Srija. J, General & Family Physician
