About Normoric 40 Tablet 10's

Normoric 40 Tablet 10's belongs to a class of anti-gout medications, also known as xanthine oxidase inhibitors, widely used to prevent severe gout attacks or flares. Gout is a chronic condition that occurs due to the deposition of uric acid crystals in the joints. It is characterized by intense pain and swelling at the affected joints. Normoric 40 Tablet 10's prevents the sudden attacks of pain caused by severe gout and decreases pain, swelling, and inflammation.

Normoric 40 Tablet 10's contains febuxostat. It works by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase (an enzyme that helps your body make uric acid), thereby reducing the level of uric acid in your body. Thus, it reduces the inflammation caused by uric acid crystals in affected joints, thereby reducing pain, swelling and inflammation. Normoric 40 Tablet 10's is used to prevent gout attacks or flares.
