How long should i take alluperinol every month my uric acid test results exceed to the ratio of ten?

Chronic: Allopurinol is a chronic daily use medication for suppression of gout symptoms. That being said if your blood uric acid level is not lower than 6 then allopurinol is not doing the job and you might need a different medication such as Colcrys or Uloric.
