Adenuric 40mg Tablets – 20 Tablets – Effective Gout & Uric Acid Management

Description

Adenuric 40mg Tablets contain Febuxostat, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor used to manage hyperuricemia (high uric acid levels) in patients with gout. By reducing uric acid production, Adenuric helps prevent painful gout attacks, reduces the risk of kidney stones, and promotes overall joint health. It is commonly prescribed for patients who cannot tolerate other uric acid-lowering medications like allopurinol.
