About Topiroxo 40 Tablet

Topiroxo 40 Tablet is a selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor medicine used to treat and manage hyperuricemia (excess uric acid in the blood) and gout. Gout is a chronic condition due to the deposition of uric acid in the joints. It is characterized by intense pain and swelling at the affected joints.

Topiroxo 40 Tablet contains Topiroxostat, which works by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase (an enzyme essential for the degradation of purine nucleotides to create uric acid), thereby reducing the uric acid level in your body. Thus, it reduces the inflammation caused by uric acid in affected joints, thereby reducing pain, swelling and inflammation.

Topiroxo 40 Tablet should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. The dose of this medicine will be decided by your doctor, depending on your medical condition. This medicine may cause some common side effects such as liver enzyme elevations, upset stomach, diarrhoea, nausea, drowsiness, headache, and vomiting. Most of these side effects are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, contact your doctor.

Avoid taking Topiroxo 40 Tablet if you are allergic to any of the substances in it. To avoid potential interactions, inform your doctor about your medical and medication history, including herbal and vitamin supplements, before using this medication. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Limited information about using Topiroxo 40 Tablet in children is available, so do not use it without a doctor's advice. Avoid consumption of alcohol while taking Topiroxo 40 Tablet as consuming alcohol may worsen your condition.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Gout: Gout is an inflammatory (allergic reaction) condition that forms uric acid crystals and accumulates inside feet, knuckles, and surrounding bone joints. This occurs due to high uric acid levels in the blood, resulting in immense joint pain. The pain may be severe, but the condition improves with medication. Repeated gout attacks can require long-term medication to avoid bone and cartilage damage and weakening of the kidneys. Chronic gout sufferers can feel small hard lumps forming over time in the soft flesh in areas such as the wrists, elbows, feet, or earlobes. These deposits are concentrations of uric acid crystals, called tophi, and can cause pain and stiffness over time.
