Hi..my father is 92 and has been on 100mg of allupironal for gout. He was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and was put on 40mg of lasixs a day. He is having frequent severe gout attacks which the dr. gives him a shot of anti inflammatory and prendisone for a week and the gout comes right back before he finishes the medicine. I read lasixs activates gout. what to do next?? My father is in terrible pain.
