FOR SOME PATIENTS

Uncontrolled Gout Can Go On and On and On

Whether you call it severe gout, chronic gout, tophaceous gout, or uncontrolled gout, the challenges your patients are facing with persistently high serum uric acid (sUA) levels can
go beyond debilitating flares and tophi.

This systemic, progressive disease continues to form and deposit monosodium urate (MSU) crystals throughout the body, which can negatively impact organ systems and patients’ daily lives.1-7
