description Objective: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of febuxostat (Azuriks®) in the treatment of patients with gout and concomitant diseases.Patients and methods. An observational, open-label, single-centre study of the results of febuxostat use in 85 gout patients with insufficient prior allopurinol efficacy or its intolerance. The median age of patients was 56.2 [49; 59] years, among them 83.5% were men. All patients had comorbid diseases, mainly cardiovascular pathology (76.5%) and chronic kidney disease (60%). The achievement of target values of uric acid (UA) during 4 months of urate-lowering therapy and its safety were assessed.Results and discussion. After 4 months of therapy with febuxostat, 25% of patients reached the target values of UA. Exacerbations at an early stage of the use of urate-lowering therapy were rare and were characterized by a lesser severity of the articular syndrome. Normalization of purine metabolism was accompanied by a decrease in the laboratory activity index (CRP level) to values corresponding to the interictal period of gout. Febuxostat was well tolerated.Conclusion. According to the data obtained, in patients with gout and concomitant diseases, febuxostat allows reaching target UA values in a short time without dose titration, while a high safety profile is noted.
