Allopurinol Generic
Purpose
Allopurinol is a medication used to treat gout and high levels of uric acid in the blood, a condition known as hyperuricemia. It is also prescribed to prevent uric acid buildup in patients undergoing cancer treatment, particularly chemotherapy or radiation therapy, which may elevate uric acid levels due to cell breakdown.
How It Works
Allopurinol works by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase, which is responsible for converting purines into uric acid. By blocking this enzyme, allopurinol:
- Lowers uric acid levels – helps prevent gout attacks and crystal formation.
- Reduces risk of kidney stones – caused by urate accumulation.
- Prevents uric acid complications – especially during cancer therapy.
Usage
- Administration: Taken orally, typically once daily with a full glass of water. It is recommended to take it after meals to reduce stomach upset.
- Effectiveness: Uric acid levels begin to decrease within 2–3 days; full benefit may take several weeks.
- Recommended dosage: Typically starts at 100 mg daily, adjusted based on uric acid levels and kidney function.
Precautions
Before using Allopurinol, consider the following precautions:
- Tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease.
- Ensure adequate hydration during treatment to reduce the risk of kidney stones.
- Inform your physician of any known hypersensitivity reactions to similar drugs.
Contraindications
Allopurinol should not be used in patients with:
- Known allergy to allopurinol or ingredients in the formulation.
- Acute gout attack (start treatment only after inflammation subsides).
- Severe liver dysfunction (unless directed by a physician).
Possible Side Effects
Common or potential side effects of allopurinol include:
- Rash – may be mild to severe; report immediately if widespread.
- Gastrointestinal discomfort – such as nausea or diarrhea.
- Drowsiness or dizziness
- Liver enzyme elevation – requires periodic monitoring.
Seek medical advice if side effects persist or worsen.
Drug Interaction
Allopurinol may interact with the following medications:
- Azathioprine or mercaptopurine – dosage may need to be reduced to avoid toxicity.
- Warfarin – may increase anticoagulant effect; monitor INR closely.
- Antibiotics like ampicillin – may increase risk of skin reactions.
Missed Dose
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time for your next dose, skip the missed one. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.
Overdose
Symptoms of overdose may include:
- Nausea and vomiting
- Dizziness or lethargy
- Kidney function deterioration
Seek immediate medical attention in case of suspected overdose.
Storage
Store Allopurinol at room temperature in a dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use after the expiration date printed on the packaging.
Available Dosages
- 100 mg
- 300 mg
Initial treatment often begins with 100 mg daily. Dosage may be increased gradually under medical supervision depending on uric acid response and kidney function.
