#gout#goutyarthritis#treatmentofgout • During the acute inflammatory stage, I do not prescribe allopurinol. I let the acute inflammatory state first subside. Then, I add allopurinol. During initiation or titration of allopurinol, I also top up with antiinflammatory agents like colchicine or NSAIDs. The reason for this is that if u prescribe allopurinol alone, it can precipitate acute gouty arthritis. Therefore, when we are initiating or titrating the allopurinol dose, we also top up prophylactically with anti-inflammatory agents.
