Abstract

Gout is the most prevalent inflammatory arthritis, affecting 2.5% of adults in the UK.1 Despite its prevalence and the availability of potentially ‘curative’ urate-lowering therapies (ULT) such as allopurinol, gout remains undertreated in both primary and secondary care. Under half of patients receive ULT and many do not have ULT escalated sufficiently to reduce serum uric acid (sUA) below recommended target levels.
