Hello,
uric acid won't cause any symptoms in itself. This is particularly so for stomach upset and arrhythmia. Diuretics like the one contained in Telsartan-H may increase blood uric acid levels. Increased uric acid levels need treatment when one of the following conditions exist:
- history of gout
- uric acid renal stones
- uric acid skin nodules
- after treatment of tumors/hematologic malignancies which cause a very high level of uric acid in the blood.
I hope I've been clear and helpful!
If you have further questions, please ask and I'll be glad to help more.
Kind Regards!
