Acute gout causes sudden and severe pain and inflammation in joints, especially those in the big toe. Lowering high levels of uric acid in the blood through urate lowering therapies can help prevent future gout attacks. Common urate lowering therapies include medications such as allopurinol and febuxostat that inhibit uric acid production or increase uric acid excretion from the body.
