    Daily dose of 80mg Uloric + 0.6mg Colcrys has given me 2 years of Gout free living. The accumulation of tophi on my elbow and knuckles have almost disappeared. I no longer worry about eating the wrong foods.

    I have very few gout attacks and most attacks are mild. I do not take any other gout medicine on a regular basis for gout. Before I was having at least one attack monthly lasting 2-3 days.
