Frequently asked questions
What is Zycolchin used for?
Zycolchin contains colchicine 0.5 mg. It is used to treat and prevent gout attacks, and for rare conditions like familial Mediterranean fever. It eases inflammation but does not lower uric acid.
How quickly does Goutnil work in a gout attack?
It works best when started within the first 12 to 24 hours of an attack; pain usually eases within a day or two. If there is no improvement in 2 to 3 days, see your doctor instead of taking more tablets.
Can I take colchicine with febuxostat or Zyloric?
Yes. Doctors often prescribe a low dose of colchicine for the first weeks or months after starting febuxostat or allopurinol, because uric-acid-lowering treatment can trigger attacks at first.
Why does colchicine cause loose motions?
Diarrhoea, nausea and stomach pain are the most common effects and are the first warning that the dose is too high. Stop the tablets and tell your doctor if they occur.
