Naproxen (250mg) for gout
Prescribed by rheumatologist in combination with Colchine 0.5 mg. Both meds two tabs a day. After 5 days still in pain from gout. Is there anybody who can tell me when these meds start working? Or do I need to built up a certain level first?

Colchicine (0,5mg) for gout
I take this medicine whenever i feel the gout coming on and it works well for me, i use Allopurinol almost every day. I get gout about two times every year but very violently which forces me to stay home for two days but after that i feel better again.

Allopurinol (300mg) for gout
After having gotten the third attack within 2 months I got allopurinol prescribed by the Doctor, as well as Colchichine and diclofenac. Colchichine works fine, but has very heavy update (diarrhea). Having started with Allopurinol, the gout-free periods have been extended. After about 1 year I was completely gout free.

Diclofenac (50mg) for gout
As soon as I notice gout coming on, I take 2 diclofenacs and another after about 6 hours. They really help to get over the worst of the pain and the symptoms disappear after around about another day.

Sometimes I get the feeling that ...

Allopurinol

Allopurinol (200mg) for gout
psoriasis developed after a couple of months of taking allopurinol (because of gout), gradually over my whole body (even in my face). Went to the dermatologist with all my creams etc. dismissed the connection with allopurinol. I forgot to take allopurinol one time, was a coincidence that it was less aggressive. Stopped taking allopurinol off my own back. Within a month my psoriasis was gone.

Allopurinol (100mg) for gout
The pain was chronic. I was suffering from the long-term effects of taking dicolfenac (a very good painkiller much better than paracetamol). I had to chose between severe pain an serious stomach complaints. Used dicolfenac for the first 4 days and the pain went. Still have serious stomach complaints.
