Zurig Tablet 40mg contains Febuxostat, a medication used to treat gout and high uric acid levels in the blood (hyperuricemia). It works by reducing the production of uric acid in the body, which helps prevent painful gout attacks and joint inflammation.

Gout occurs when excess uric acid forms crystals in the joints, causing pain, swelling, and stiffness. Zurig helps lower uric acid levels over time, reducing the risk of recurrent gout attacks and joint damage.

Doctors often prescribe Zurig as a long-term treatment for patients with chronic gout or elevated uric acid levels.
