Kivostat-40
Description_Effects
Kivostat-40 contains Febuxostat 40mg, a medicine used to prevent and treat gout, a condition caused by excessive uric acid in the body. When uric acid levels become too high, sharp crystals can form in and around joints and kidneys, leading to sudden, severe pain, redness, warmth, and swelling. This often affects joints like the big toe, causing intense discomfort known as gout attacks. Febuxostat works by reducing the production of uric acid in the body, helping to lower blood uric acid levels. By preventing the formation of uric acid crystals, it reduces the frequency and severity of gout attacks and minimizes the risk of joint damage. Lowering uric acid also helps protect kidney function and prevents complications related to crystal deposits. Kivostat-40 is usually prescribed as a long-term treatment to maintain healthy uric acid levels and prevent gout flare-ups. It is important to take this medicine regularly and consistently, as directed by your doctor, even if you are not currently experiencing symptoms. Stopping treatment early can lead to a return of symptoms and complications. Along with medication, lifestyle changes like staying hydrated, avoiding alcohol, and limiting foods high in purines can help manage gout effectively. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for best results.
