Get Colcrys Online

Colcrys (colchicine) is FDA-approved to treat acute gout flares and to prevent future flares in adults. It works by reducing the inflammatory response caused by uric acid crystals depositing in the joints, which helps relieve pain, swelling, and redness.

Most patients begin to notice improvement within 12 to 24 hours of taking Colcrys when it is started early in a flare. The medication is most effective when taken at the first sign of a gout attack. Waiting longer before starting treatment may reduce how well it works.

The standard dosing for an acute gout flare is 1.2 mg taken at the first sign of a flare, followed by 0.6 mg one hour later. For prophylaxis, a lower daily or twice-daily dose is typically used. Your prescribing physician will determine the right dose for your specific situation.

The most common side effects are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping. These effects are more likely at higher doses. Less commonly, prolonged use or drug interactions can affect muscle or bone marrow function. Contact your doctor if you experience unusual muscle pain or weakness.
