Abstract
Gout is a chronic systemic inflammatory tophus disease with recurrent arthritis of the peripheral joints in patients with hyperuricemia and the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in various tissues. Only 50% or less of patients receive therapy lowering serum uric acid levels to the target level. The lowering therapy is started with a low dose and subsequent titration in all patients with high UA serum levels in the presence of renal pathology, and in such comorbid diseases as hypertension, heart failure, coronary artery disease.
