MORE INFO:

Active Ingredient: Probenecid

Probalan works by removing the extra uric acid from the body. Probalan does not cure gout, but after you have been taking it for a few months it will help prevent gout attacks. Probalan will help prevent gout attacks only as long as you continue to take it.

Probalan is also used to prevent or treat other medical problems that may occur if too much uric acid is present in the body.

Probalan is sometimes used with certain kinds of antibiotics to make them more effective in the treatment of infections.

Do not use Probalan if:

you are allergic to any ingredient in Probalan;

you have blood problems or kidney stones caused by uric acid;
the patient is a child younger than 2 years of age;

you are taking salicylates (e.g., aspirin).

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
