Maury, congrats on your total Uric Acid reduction buddy. That’s awesome. 3.9 is great. Keep up what your doing, and welcome to your new lifestyle.
James, you might need to up your dose in a bit. I started at 100mg (which is normal) but in 3 months my UA went from 7.8 to 7.6 on 100mgs. Not working. My Rheumotolgist bumped it to 300mgs and within 4 months it went from 7.6 to 4.3 and has held around 4.0 for a year. I’d expect a bump up in your dose after your doctor can clear you on your next blood test, if your liver and kidney function test show your body can handle it.
