The active ingredient works at the source of uric acid, holding back the enzyme xanthine oxidase that makes it. When uric acid production is reduced, uric acid levels in the blood stay lower and the risk of new gout trouble from crystal build-up is reduced.

Must not be used by patients being treated with azathioprine or mercaptopurine. Check with a doctor first if you have established cardiovascular disease such as heart attack, stroke or heart failure, as a higher rate of cardiovascular death was seen in these patients and the doctor should weigh the risks and benefits. Check with a doctor first if you have high uric acid with no gout symptoms (asymptomatic hyperuricemia), as febuxostat is not recommended for this. Check with a doctor first if you have liver problems; if signs of liver injury appear during treatment, treatment must be interrupted promptly and a doctor should be contacted for assessment, and febuxostat stopped if liver injury is confirmed. Check with a doctor first if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding.
