Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This position paper aims to clarify the presumed place of febuxostat in the management of gout patients. Since this novel xanthine oxidase inhibitor is now available, an international group of gout experts decided to formulate an international consensus statement. This statement presents the place for this new xanthine oxidase inhibitor in the treatment of gout which may contribute to optimize treatment of gout patients in Europe and worldwide.
