ZYLOPRIM DESCRIPTION

This medicine is a hyperuricemic agent used to treat gout and to prevent certain kidney stones from reforming. It may also be used to treat other conditions.

Why is this Zyloprim prescribed?

Zyloprim is used to treat chronic gout and to keep the body from producing excessive amounts of uric acid, which could lead to or aggravate various medical problems. It is used to prevent gout attacks, not to treat them once they occur.

This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

How should Zyloprim be used?

Zyloprim comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It usually is taken once a day, preferably after a meal. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Zyloprim exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.

Zyloprim may increase the frequency of gout attacks during the first 6-12 months that you take it, although it will eventually prevent them. Another drug, such as colchicine, may be prescribed to decrease this effect.

What special precautions should I follow when taking Zyloprim?

Before taking Zyloprim, tell your doctor and pharmacist if you are allergic to Zyloprim or any other drugs.

tell your doctor and pharmacist what prescription and nonprescription medications you are taking, especially amoxicillin (Amoxil, Trimox), ampicillin (Polycillin, Principen), anticoagulants ('blood thinners'), cancer chemotherapy agents (azathioprine, mercaptopurine, cyclophosphamide), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), co-trimoxazole (Bactrim, Septra), diuretics ('water pills'), medication for high blood pressure, theophylline (Theo-Dur), and vitamins.

tell your doctor if you have or have ever had kidney disease, liver disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes.

tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding. If you become pregnant while taking Zyloprim, call your doctor.

ask your doctor for advice on drinking alcoholic beverages, as alcohol may reduce the effectiveness of Zyloprim.

What special dietary instructions should I follow for Zyloprim?

Drink at least eight glasses of water or other fluids each day while taking Zyloprim unless directed to do otherwise by your doctor.

Avoid excessive amounts of vitamin C supplements or fruit juice while taking Zyloprim. Too much vitamin C in combination with Zyloprim may increase your chance of developing kidney stones.

What should I do if I forget a dose of Zyloprim?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

What other information should I know about Zyloprim?

Keep all appointments with your doctor and the laboratory. Your doctor will order certain lab tests to check your response to Zyloprim.

Do not let anyone else take your medication. Ask your pharmacist any questions you have about refilling your prescription.
