It is usually necessary to use related drugs to reduce uric acid (such as allopurinol, benbromarone and febuxostat), but in clinic, doctors do not recommend rapid uric acid reduction.

If uric acid decreases too fast, it will induce an acute attack of gout. The drop of uric acid per month should not exceed 60 micromole/L (the blood uric acid level can be monitored regularly according to the doctor's advice).

Of course, not all people with high uric acid need to use uric acid-lowering drugs. When doctors really need to use drugs to reduce uric acid, doctors usually choose small doses of drugs to slowly start reducing uric acid. According to the level of uric acid excretion and the presence or absence of kidney calculi, drugs that inhibit uric acid production or promote uric acid excretion are selected.

At the same time, life should be adjusted accordingly:

1. Avoid drinking alcohol and taking sugary drinks, such as carbonated drinks, fruit juice and milk tea.

2. Reduce the intake of meat and seafood, and make up for protein's intake through low-fat dairy products and bean products.

3. Eat more vegetables, fruits and whole grains.

4. Insist on proper exercise. It is suggested to carry out moderate and low-intensity aerobic exercise, such as walking, brisk walking, jogging, Tai Ji Chuan, dancing, kicking shuttlecock and practicing yoga. Rest is recommended during gout attack.

5. Drink plenty of water, the daily water consumption is more than 2000 mL, increase the urine output and promote uric acid excretion.

6. Obese patients should lose weight.
