What Is The Remedy For The Pain In The Foot?
Hi,
My name is Vinood, 40 years age. The past three days I am using colchicine 0.5 bis. but have still some pain in my foot.
Also i use captopril 25mg for hypertension.
Can i use diclofenac 50 mg to ease the pain faster?
Also i have been prescribed allopurinol 300mg. this i should use when the pain is over and then stop with colchicine.
Can i use all these drugs concomittant?
Does the allopurinol have interaction with captopril?
regards,
Vinood

Hi, there!
Allopurinol is for gout treatment, starting with 100mg daily
Your dose (300mg) of Allopurinol is to treat mild gout.
Colchicine is for treating and preventing gout flares.
Combination of Captopril and Allopurinol increases risk of severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) and skin reactions (Stevens-Johnson Syndrome).
The main question is - do You have gout flare now?
If the flare is present, use Colchicin, not Allopurinol
Diclophenac dont interact with Colchicine.
You can use anithypertension drugs without disruption
I hope this helps
