Yes, you have what's called hyperurecemic gout exacerbation time to time; avoid xyloric during exacerbation; instead take colchicine 500 microgram once or twice daily for a couple of weeks and then keep xyloric on regular basis. Avoiding all those stuff o food containing high purines is recommended.
