It made for to sudden a drop in Uric acid levels. From 12.8 to 6.4 in under two months. This caused massive kidney problems, stones and infections. A week in the hospital.

This a wonderfull drug! I had tried taking Allpurinol and another older drug (Collchiceen (sp?)) but they both wrecked havoc with my GI system. In short, the cure was as bad as the illness. However, when Uloric came out and my doctor put me on it...I had no more problems. I can't tell that I'm taking the stuff, except that my joint pain has gone away.
