Uloric to Treat Gout?
Doctor discusses Uloric as a treatment for gout
I have yet to try this medication *Uloric* as all “corporate” meds really concern me. But has anyone tried it yet? If you have please tell us how it works and if the side effects are nil to extreme.
I always seem to struggle to find a treatment that has staying power. The herbal home remedies work but do not last (for me anyway) and need something
STRONG and to keep this gout at bay! This Uloric is new and I have not heard much, but I see them advertising on TV a lot. What that tells me is more and more people must be suffering from gout than ever before. Usually treating gout was to a select group of folks.
Has gout become an epidemic? I was recently in Hawaii and just about everywhere I went there some Hawaiian dude walking with a cane or barefoot because their gout has reared its ugly head and is acting up. I spoke to a few of them and they told me its an ongoing things and nothing really works, but one big fella admitted he does not watch his diet. tsk tsk
It’s not secret that Pacific Islanders are more predisposed to gout attacks due to their genetic makeup and such. It’s not a disease for old rich white men anymore as a lot of younger males are suffering from gout for no particular reason they claim. Hence the big push of Uloric lately.
I may try this if my gout persists, but would like some more info from patients who have been using it.



Anyone know if fish oil is bad for gout and what about standard vitamin and mineral supplements? Anything to look at in the supplements that may be good or bad for gout? Just got diagnosed and am trying to figure this all out.
not sure, just AVOID any vitamins wit Niacin.
if you do not want to take the scribed meds, look into black cherry extract pills – you can find them in any health store on online.
