Today’s video is all about gout drugs for Nursing Students and NCLEX Review.
Allopurinol and colchicine are both used to treat gout by reducing uric acid. Allopurinol is a medication used to reduce the amount of uric acid in the blood, while colchicine is used to reduce inflammation and swelling.
Both medications are safe for most clients – but as a nurse, you must be aware of their differences and implications when administering these medications.
