Introduction to Vilstat


Vilstat is a medication primarily used to manage and treat gout, a type of arthritis characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, redness, and tenderness in joints. It contains the active ingredient Febuxostat, which is effective in reducing uric acid levels in the body. By lowering uric acid, Vilstat helps prevent gout attacks and the formation of uric acid crystals in the joints. It is available in tablet form, making it convenient for oral administration. Vilstat is a prescription medication and should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional.


Composition of Vilstat


The primary active ingredient in Vilstat is Febuxostat, present in a dosage of 80mg per tablet. Febuxostat is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, which works by blocking the action of xanthine oxidase, an enzyme responsible for converting purines into uric acid. By inhibiting this enzyme, Febuxostat effectively reduces the production of uric acid in the body, thereby helping to manage and prevent gout attacks. Its targeted action makes it a potent option for those suffering from hyperuricemia associated with gout.

Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
