Allopurinol safe dose
how much Allo is a safe dose…..Is more better?because I have been suffering with the usual big toe joint pain forover three weeks and it is just driving me to despair!!!Is their any way of clearing this consistant attack quickly?I have been prescribed Allo (300mg daily) & Indomethacin (50mg)x3times a day.But it is not clearing it!!!!Any help would be very much appreciated.

Sorry..I can’t remember..have you tried colchicine yet? I haveresponded/posted that that is the ONLY thing that worked forme.Colch, and indo.Indo byitself did ZERO.
Allo won’t do anything for an existing attack(rarely).I surewouldn’t take any more of it.
Colch.,indo.,water,food that stays in,rest.

Yup, indo didnt do squat for me either. Colchicine was the only”fairly” immediate answer/relief

Get the Colcchicine and hang in there. No more allo because morewill do nothing. What you are taking has stopped the formation ofmore uric acid and you now have to flush out the system. More water,then when you have had your fil of water drink some more. It willhelp if you stop all intake of foods that can cause an allergicreaction so I recommend a three day kind of fast on white rice toclear your system and hang in there. It will clear soon and you willbe better. It just takes time, and a lot of trips to the rest room.Make sure you are well hydrated before bed.
