How Adenuric 80mg Works in the Body

Febuxostat, the main ingredient in Adenuric, works by inhibiting xanthine oxidase—an enzyme responsible for converting purines into uric acid, thus effectively reducing uric acid levels in the bloodstream. Over time, this helps decrease uric acid crystal buildup in the joints, easing inflammation and preventing painful flare-ups.
