POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
_Gout:_
The recommended oral dose of febuxostat is 80 mg once daily without
regard to food. If serum
uric acid is > 6 mg/dL (357 µmol/L) after 2-4 weeks, febuxostat 120
mg once daily may be considered.
Febuxostat works sufficiently quickly to allow retesting of the serum
uric acid after 2 weeks. The
therapeutic target is to decrease and maintain serum uric acid below 6
mg/dL (357 μmol/L).
Gout flare prophylaxis of at least 6 months is recommended (see
section 4.4).
_Tumor Lysis Syndrome:_
The recommended oral dose of febuxostat is 120 mg once daily without
regard
to food. Febuxostat should be started two days before the beginning of
cytotoxic therapy and continued
for a minimum of 7 days; however treatment may be prolonged up to 9
days according to chemotherapy
duration as per clinical judgment.
_Elderly_
No dose adjustment is required in the elderly (see section 5.2).
