High uric acid levels, such as 8.5 mg/dL, can increase the risk of joint pain, gout attacks, kidney stones, and long-term kidney problems if not controlled properly. Medicines like Fubox 80 help lower uric acid levels, but lifestyle and diet changes are also very important for better long-term control. Try to drink plenty of water throughout the day because good hydration helps the body remove excess uric acid through urine. Avoid foods that are high in purines, such as red meat, organ meat, certain seafood, excess oily foods, and packaged junk food, as these can raise uric acid levels. Limiting alcohol, especially beer, and reducing sugary drinks or soft drinks is also helpful. Instead, focus on a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat milk products, nuts, and adequate fibre. Maintaining a healthy weight and doing regular light exercise like walking can further improve uric acid control, but avoid sudden crash dieting or excessively high-protein diets because they may worsen the condition. Continue taking your medicine regularly as prescribed and do not stop it suddenly, even if symptoms improve. It is also important to monitor kidney function and uric acid levels regularly with your doctor because some people may need dose adjustments or long-term treatment depending on their symptoms and blood test results. If you continue to have severe joint pain, swelling, redness, kidney stone symptoms, or repeated gout attacks despite treatment, consult your doctor again for further evaluation and treatment adjustment. With proper medicine, hydration, healthy eating, and weight control, uric acid levels can usually be managed effectively.
