Is whiting fish and catfish bad for gout?

No: Because they are relatively low in fat content. That is unless fried then that would be bad!

NO: Diets are of limited benefit. Some meds make gout worse. Avoid alcohol. Beware of aspirin. Thiazide diuretics raise uric acid. You may be given a daily dose of Colchicine and/or allopurinal.
