  • INDICATIONS

    Colchicine is specifically indicated for treatment and relief of pain in attacks of acute gouty arthritis. It is also recommended for regular use between attacks as a prophylactic measure, and is often effective in aborting an attack when taken at the first sign of articular discomfort. Colchicine is a beta-tubulin interactor. It may affect certain proteins in the body, which may relieve gout symptoms.
