How Gyloric 40mg Tablet works
Gyloric 40mg Tablet is a non-purine selective inhibitor, disrupts the activity of xanthine oxidase, a key enzyme in purine breakdown. By forming a stable complex with both forms of the enzyme, febuxostat effectively hinders its function. This inhibition reduces the production of uric acid from hypoxanthine, leading to lower levels of uric acid in the bloodstream. The therapeutic impact of febuxostat lies in its ability to decrease serum uric acid levels in individuals with hyperuricemia, a condition where uric acid concentration exceeds its solubility threshold. Notably, febuxostat's chemical structure differs from purines and pyrimidines, and it appears to specifically target xanthine oxidase without affecting other nucleotide-catabolic enzymes.
