Recognize Gout Medication Side Effects

Did you know that many gout treatments are known to have serious side-effects and can even

be LIFE-THREATENING!

Sufferers of gout are often advised to take NSAIDs, Colchicine or Allopurinol.

These commonly prescribed gout treatments are proven to help relieve or prevent

gout attacks.

But they can also have dangerous side effects, and possibly even be life-threatening.

Read on to find out why you should be looking for natural gout cures instead.

When I first had a gout attack, I spent a lot of time researching the gout treatments.

I thought I would do anything to get rid of this incredibly excruciating pain.

But once I researched some of the side effects I wasn’t so sure that I would!

The information about potential side effects that I uncovered floored me!

Just some of the things I found are below.

NSAIDs commonly cause stomach lining damage!

NSAIDs are commonly prescribed to relieve the inflammation and pain from

an acute gout attack.

However before you decide to use them make sure you check out these quotes from an internationally recognised expert on gout,

Professor Emeritus Bryan Emmerson.

“Damage to the lining membrane of the stomach is so common with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy that it can

be almost looked upon as an effect of therapy and not merely a side effect”

“Kidney function may deteriorate”

“The use of these drugs increases the risk of complications from a peptic ulcer

by three to four times”

Colchicine gives you diarrhea, nausea and vomiting!

Another commonly prescribed gout medication, colchicine is known to cause diarrhea,

nausea and vomiting.

In fact some sources state that the only way to know the correct dosage of colchicine

is to keep upping the dosage until you actually get those symptoms!

Sorry about the mental image I’m about to create… imagine having to make a mad dash to the bathroom with either diarrhea or nausea …

but you can hardly walk!

The first six words you see if you look up colchicine on Wikipedia are

“Colchicine is a toxic natural product”.

Also on Wikipedia “High doses can also damage bone marrow and lead to anaemia”

and “Colchicine poisoning has been compared to arsenic poisoning”

Allopurinol may be life-threatening!

One fact I read on allopurinol stopped me in my tracks. “Other side effects, commonly

referred to as a general hyper-sensitivity, are much more serious and may even

be life-threatening.”

And another ends “… fever, dermatitis (with loss of superficial skin), liver disease, and inflammation of the kidney with rapid

deterioration of kidney function”.

Now that’s scary!

There is an alternative

I don’t know about you, but the side-effects of these drugs do not appeal.

But luckily there is an alternative, because natural gout treatments are effective in

relieving and even preventing gout.

These treatments can be as simple as eating certain foods and avoiding others.

Gout and diet are very much interlinked, and it is important to understand how your diet can

be responsible for your joint pain.
