What a great thread! It is a sad state when all a doctor can think of any more is how many years left until retirement! I still have patients screaming for quinine. I tell them to do just what Roger said...drink some tonic and lemon before bed.
Sharon, thanks for the first-hand experience. My patient had a severe fixed-drug reaction to allopurinol as well. I think I will see how much they want to charge her for the Uloric.
