Get a colchicine (generic Mitigare) prescription online for gout treatment

Colchicine is indicated for use as a preventative measure against gout flare-ups. Gout is a type of arthritis caused by uric acid crystals building up in the joints. Gout attacks can be extremely painful and often come on without warning. Like other forms of arthritis, gout can affect nearly any joint in the body but is most commonly felt in the big toe before the condition spreads to other areas.

Common symptoms of a gout flare-up include:

• Intense, sharp joint pain
  
• Joint discomfort (often lingering after an attack)
  
• Inflammation
  
• Redness
  
• Swelling
  
• Tenderness
  
• Burning, or warm feelings in the affected area
  
• Limited range of motion
  

Colchicine helps prevent these symptoms and reduces the discomfort caused by gout attacks.

Colchicine has been shown to cause some side effects. If these mild reactions do not go away within a few days, talk to your health care provider.

Common side effects include:

• Diarrhea
  
• Nausea
  
• Vomiting
  
• Stomach pain
  

This is not a complete list of adverse reactions caused by colchicine. Call your doctor right away if you experience any symptoms of muscle pain, bruising/ bleeding, tingling in fingers or toes, fatigue, fever, and chills.

As with all prescription medication, be sure to inform the prescribing doctor about any medical conditions you have been previously diagnosed with, as well as any medication/ supplements you are currently taking. Do not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice while taking colchicine. Colchicine can interact with other forms of medication and substances, causing potentially serious side effects. In addition, let your doctor know if you are pregnant or plan on becoming pregnant.

Colchicine is primarily prescribed as an oral capsule containing .6 mg of colchicine. As a preventative measure against gout flareups, it is recommended that adults take one or two capsules a day. The maximum recommended dosage of colchicine is 1.2 mg per day. This may vary depending on other medications you are taking for gout.

Do not discontinue or increase your dosage of colchicine without consulting your doctor first. Take the medication exactly as prescribed, and inform your doctor if you begin to experience any side effects while taking the medication.
