Effectiveness
How Duzallo Affects PatientsAllopurinol works by reducing the amount of uric acid the body makes. This helps to relieve the symptoms of gout such as painful swelling, joint pain, redness, and difficulty moving.
How Duzallo works in the bodyAllopurinol helps reduce gout symptoms by blocking an enzyme that converts hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid. This drug also increases the amount of hypoxanthine and xanthine for nucleotide and nucleic acid synthesis. As a result, uric acid levels in the urine and blood drop, which reduces the risk of gout symptoms. Allopurinol also encourages the dissolution of existing gout tophi by lowering the amount of uric acid in the blood below its solubility limit. Although hypoxanthine and xanthine levels increase after allop
