Zyloprim is a tablet containing allopurinol, available in 100mg and 300mg strengths. It is used in the management of gout, hyperuricaemia and uric acid nephropathy. Aspen Pharmacare is the originator company, and the medicine is also known as Zyloric.
Allopurinol is a structural analogue of hypoxanthine. It lowers uric acid by inhibiting xanthine oxidase, the enzyme that converts hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid. Onset takes 2 to 6 weeks, and treatment is long-term. Discontinue and seek medical attention immediately if a rash appears: the label warns that a skin rash may be followed by more severe hypersensitivity reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, generalised vasculitis, irreversible hepatotoxicity and, on rare occasions, death. Adequate fluid intake should be maintained.
