Febutax-40 Tablet contains Febuxostat (40 mg), which has a unique way of acting on your body:

• Inhibits Xanthine Oxidase: Febuxostat works by selectively blocking an enzyme called xanthine oxidase in your body. This enzyme is responsible for converting purines into uric acid.

• Reduces Uric Acid Levels: By inhibiting the activity of xanthine oxidase, Febuxostat effectively reduces uric acid production at the source. This results in lower serum uric acid levels and prevents crystallization of uric acid in the joints that can trigger painful gout attacks.

• Maintains Optimal Uric Acid Levels: The ultimate goal of Febuxostat is to maintain serum uric acid below 6 mg/dL, thus helping manage chronic gout and prevent joint damage due to high uric acid levels.

• Regularly hydrating your body with water can aid in flushing out excess uric acid, making it beneficial for managing gout.
