Best Gout Cures

[boss415]

I got loaded on beer and jaeger shots friday night and gave myself a nice case of gout. Other than taking allupurinol or other preventives ( which I dont want to do) how do you best cure it? I hit the motrin 600 2 at a time then elevate. Pom wonderful seems better than black cherry juice for me. If it gets real bad I will opt for colchisene. Everybody is different so just curious to hear what tactics are used

I take uloric daily for gout, have had no flare ups in almost 2 years

i took alpurinol for a year and got it every couple months switched to uloric and have not had it once I also take cherry pills from gnc

Uloric is expensive ?
Allupurinol didnt really work for me either.
I am gonna see if Trader Joes still has whole tart cherries. Cherry pills sounds good thank you !

Half the time Allupurinol doesn't do the full job. Once the doctor also prescribed me Probenecid it stopped the pain entirely.

I really dont want to take something everyday. I read allupurinol is bad for the liver so I stopped and it didnt really keep me from getting gout. Bought some tart cherries at Trader Joes and that should help. Wish I had an oxy or something similar for the pain.

You don't want to be taking painkillers everyday either. Everybody is different, but for me, if I didn't have the allopurinol/probenecid combo I wouldn't be able to function no matter how many tart cherries I had. Really, the reality is if you can't lower your uric acid below 6mg/dl your just prolonging the agony, and eventually the gout attacks will get worse the older you get.

No more daily painkillers for sure. I changed my diet a ton and that has kept me from flaring. Thing is I love to drink beer and sometimes too many. Playing with fire ! I was hoping for cures once goit is there. Like I said Pom juice is better for me than black cherry. I also use motrin rather than indocin. Motrin is tough on the guts but indocine feels like it is burning a hole right through!

I use to get it all the time. I quit drinking soda & that did the trick. Iuse to take 75 mg Indocin. It took the pain away & I could walk. It's the only med that work unless you want to take colchince the rest of your life. Also, lay off lunch meat.

My doc gave me a coupon where it's not expensive since I must take it everyday probably the rest of my life. Ask your doc for a coupon, it costs me 15/month max

I have Kaiser which always has the cheapest drugs and they would most likely give me allupurinol. Glad it is working for you !

Funny you say lunch meat. I bought some turkey at Costco that I thought I liked. Real processed and kind of sketchy! One thing I have learned is to stay away from processed meats. I buy most of my meat at Whole Foods now and I avoid anything that isnt hormone, steroid etc. free. Thing is I love my IPA's yet I think they are killing me !

Drink lots and lots of water.

there is really nothing to do but take a Uloric..home remedy won't do the trick...talk to your doctor....he may have some free samples.....lowering the acid levels in your body and diet are the only cures..bol
