Preventative Drugs - allergic to allopurinol ! Posted: 09-20-07 16:35pm
I am allergic to allopurinol, but have
heard that there is another drug used in
Europe and not yet approved in this
country. Does anyone know of it?

Perhaps you are thinking about
Rasburicase. It's been used
investigatively in cases like yours with
great success. You just have to find a
doctor who will try it on you.

You may want to ask your Dr. about
Febuxostat also. Used here in the USA for
folks with sensitivity to Alopurinol and
Probenicid.
