if you've ever had Gout, chances are you remember the episode very well and found it rather unpleasant. Gout is a form of arthritis that causes extreme attacks of pain, inflammation, tenderness, and warmth in the joints. It is also known as Gouty Arthritis. Gout usually affects one joint at a time. Uloric is the first new Gout drug approved by the FDA in 40 years. The drug was previously disapproved by the FDA due to causing heart problems but the maker corrected safety concerns and the medicine was recommended for approval in November 2008http://www.webmd.com/news/20090216/fda-oks-new-gout-drug-uloric
Individuals with repetitive cases of Gout should consider if diet is playing a role or a change in diet might prevent further episodes. A Gout diet is low in purines to reduce the amount of uric acid.
