Hi,

The level of uric acid is higher than normal range. I suggest to continue the medication as prescribed by your doctor. I also suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three tablets a day to relieve the pain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
