Description

Febuxostat 40 mg Tablets- The fixed-dose formulation is used for long-term treatment of gout in adults. It is designed for people who cannot tolerate or do not respond to allopurinol.

Mechanism of Febuxostat Tablets

Febuxostat is an xanthine oxidase inhibitor that blocks other enzymes in the purine and pyrimidine metabolism. It specifically targets xanthine oxidase and provides potent blockage without disturbing other metabolic pathways. It binds to the molybdenum pterin center of the enzyme and blocks it. 

Blocking XO, it reduces the conversion of hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid. This further reduces serum urate levels to prevent gout attacks and dissolve existing crystals.
