What is Duzallo?

Duzallo contains a combination of allopurinol and lesinurad. Allopurinol reduces the production of uric acid in your body. Uric acid buildup can lead to gout.

Lesinurad helps the kidneys remove uric acid from the body.

Duzallo is used to reduce blood levels of uric acid in adults with gout.

This medicine is usually given when taking allopurinol alone has not been effective.

Warnings

You should not use Duzallo if you have severe kidney problems, Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, tumor lysis syndrome, or if you are on dialysis or have received a kidney transplant.

Duzallo can cause kidney failure. Call your doctor right away if you urinate less than usual or not at all, or if you have lower back pain, swelling in your feet or ankles, or shortness of breath.

Stop taking Duzallo and get emergency medical help if you have signs of a severe skin reaction, such as a painful, itchy, or blistering skin rash. You may also have a fever, swollen glands, or joint pain.

Before Taking

You should not use Duzallo if you are allergic to allopurinol or lesinurad, or if you have:

  • severe kidney disease (or if you are on dialysis);

  • tumor lysis syndrome (fast breakdown of tumor cells);

It is not known whether Duzallo will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.

Lesinurad can make birth control pills less effective. Ask your doctor about using a non hormonal birth control (condom, diaphragm with spermicide) to prevent pregnancy.

Other forms of hormonal contraception (injections, implants, skin patches, vaginal rings, and certain intrauterine devices) may not be effective enough to prevent pregnancy during your treatment with Duzallo.

It is not known whether allopurinol and lesinurad passes into breast milk or if it could affect the nursing baby. Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding.
