Hello,
Normally uric acid levels are explained in mmol/lit or mg/dl. But you didn't mention the units.
In case of increased uric acid levels are treated with diet and regular exercise. Use tablet xyloric 100 mg twice a day. Avoid non vegetarian food and alcohol.
If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
