Latest UA reading 6.2(200mg allo/day) down from 6.7(100mg allo/day). Increase allopurinol from 200mg/day to 300mg/day. Plan to take a colchicine morning and night in hopes that I can continue my workout routine and tennis on the weekends. I did not start preventative colchicine after allo increase from 100mg to 200mg and had to deal with a 36 hour flare – hope to avoid that this time.
One question on dosing – my allo tabs are 100mg – so I have been taking two in the morning. I plan to go to two in the morning and one in the evening – provided the pharmacist doesn’t call me with a 300mg tab script. Is there a timing recommendation?
My Doctor also asked me to return for labs in 6 weeks…. we know that’s not gonna work for me, so I’ll report back in two-three weeks.
Best All,
Luke
