Simple....: Avoid tea, broccoli, Cauliflower and red meat. Drink more water. Take Colchicin 0.5 or 0.6 mg after food two or three times a day with acute attack. Then once a day. Can take allopurinol 300mg daily for prevention also. There are other choices.

Get a Consult.: There are far too many options and consideration that are available for the treatment of gout. It is simply to much to discuss with the limited space available. You need to consult one of the many specialists who are experienced with the effective treatment of long term gout.
