I too am on a regimen of guercetin and bromelein (no dandelein)for 3 months now and no attacks. I can not take ua lowering meds due to extreme allergies to them. Both my internal med dr and my rheumatologist told me “I am on my own. They can not help me due to my allergies” so surfing the net and this forum is my only way out. Good luck. Does acupuncture help? Candace
Just saw Rheumatologist. Since I am allergic to Allopurinol and have a heart problem, he will not put me on Febuxostat. Probenecid causes Kidney Stones so he rulled that out. I am now on my own!! Do you know of an effective otc supplement that gets rid of ua (along with diet)? I don’t know what else to do.
When I was diagnosed in April, my ua was 7.6. I was placed on both allopurinol and colchicine and my ua went to 6.0. then I developed hives and was told to stop the allopurinol but not the colchicine. Now my ua is 7 8 but no hives I have a history of ventricular tach, kidney stones, GERD and am boarder line anemic. Reading the warnings for uliric and probenecid scare me.
Allergic to Allopurinol
I was diagnosed 4 months ago with gout, one attack and my Doctor put me on Allopurinol and Colchicine. I broke out in hives and was immediately taken off Allopurinol. I will not use febuxostat due to the recent “black box heart warning”. What is left for me to take? I am an older female and do not fall into the usual category of gout sufferers. Does anyone have any advice?
