More facts about Generic Zyloprim (Allopurinol 100 mg):

What is the drug sold under the name Zyloprim?

The medication mostly marketed in the U.S. under the brand name Zyloprim was first discovered in 1956. Then it was developed as an antitumor agent but it didn’t show the effect that was expected from it. However, it deemed effective in the treatment of gout. It was first patented and used for the condition in 1966. Later, the exclusive patent of the developer expired and the medication started to be produced by different companies under different names but the active substance Allopurinol is always indicated on the package of pills. Therefore, if your doctor tells you to buy Zyloprim, you can always opt for its cheaper analogs.

The active substance of the medication violates the synthesis of uric acid. It renders urostatic action, i.e. it lowers the level of uric acid in the body and promotes the dissolution of urates. Therefore, the medication is prescribed in the conditions associated with an abnormally high level of uric acid in the blood that cannot be managed with diet exclusively such as gout, uric stone disease uric acid nephropathy, and other conditions.

Allopurinol is metabolized by xanthine oxidase into its active metabolite oxypurinol that also is an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase. The active agent is almost completely metabolized within 2 hours after the oral intake. Then oxypurinol is slowly excreted with the urine within 18-30 hours. The active metabolite oxypurinol is responsible for all effects of the medication.
