feburic售价多少钱一盒？

Feburic is a xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor that can selectively inhibit xanthine oxidase, reduce uric acid production and lower blood uric acid levels. It was developed by Teijin Company of Japan. Its indication is to treat hyperuricemia (gout). In 2009, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved feburic, also known as febuxostat/febuxostat.

Gout is a heterogeneous group of diseases that are inherited or acquired disorders of reduced uric acid excretion and purine metabolism. Gout is caused by the accumulation of uric acid in the body, leading to the deposition of urate crystals in joints and various organs. The usual treatment for gout is to promote uric acid excretion and inhibit uric acid production, and take appropriate measures to improve related symptoms. The launch of feburic brings new options for the treatment of gout patients.

Feburic is a tablet drug that is administered orally. The recommended initial dose is 40 mg once a day. If serum uric acid <6 mg/dL is not achieved, it can be increased to 80 mg once a day after 2 weeks.

On September 4, 2018, feburic was approved by the National Medical Products Administration to be launched in the Chinese market. The effectiveness of feburic has been confirmed in clinical trials. The effectiveness of feburic in the general population is about 70%, which is higher than that of allopurinol. and significantly higher than the placebo group. Clinical trial data on more than 3,000 people show that feburic can effectively reduce uric acid in the blood to 360 μmol/L after taking the medicine for six months.

We already have some understanding of the effects of feburic, but how much does it cost?

We learned that the price of the original feburic (febuxostat/febuxostat) drug in Japan is relatively high, with a box costing around $1,500. The feburic produced by Zydus Pharmaceutical Factory in India has the same efficacy as the original drug, but the price is relatively low. The specification is 80mg*30 tablets/box, and the price is around 200$. Due to the floating exchange rate, please consult the medical companion for the specific price.
