Western medicine treatment of gout: 1, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: gout often acute attack, accompanied by joint pain and other adverse symptoms. Patients can be treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen sustained-release tablets and indomethacin, and selective cyclooxygenase -2 inhibitors such as celecoxib can also be used. In addition, patients generally need to take colchicine. 2. Uric acid-lowering drugs: The key to treating gout with uric acid-lowering drugs is to reduce the uric acid content of patients, so patients need to take drugs that inhibit uric acid production and promote uric acid excretion. Patients can use bensulfuron-methyl, probenecid, benbromarone and other drugs, and patients can also take xanthine oxidase inhibitors. 3. Glucocorticoid: Glucocorticoid has obvious curative effect on acute gout. Pay attention to the adverse reactions after taking the medicine and stop taking it if necessary.
Patients should pay attention to their diet. It is suggested that gout patients should drink more than 2000ml of water every day. Patients can drink tea water, avoid sugary drinks, fruit juice and thick soup, and avoid eating full-fat, low-fat and skim milk and yogurt. It is recommended to drink low-fat and skim milk or yogurt to reduce fat intake. White meat includes geese, chickens and ducks. Excessive intake of red meat will increase blood uric acid and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, while white meat will not significantly increase blood uric acid level. Therefore, it is suggested that gout patients reduce their intake of red meat, and gout patients can eat white meat appropriately.
