Description

Uses:
Febutax 40 Tablet contains Febuxostat as its active ingredient. It is primarily used to treat gout, a condition caused by high uric acid levels in the blood. Febuxostat works by reducing the production of uric acid in the body, preventing uric acid crystal deposits in the joints, which cause pain, swelling, and stiffness. It is generally prescribed for patients who cannot tolerate allopurinol or when allopurinol is ineffective.

• Headache

• Rash or skin irritation

Less common but serious side effects may include:

• Liver function abnormalities (elevated liver enzymes)
