Figure 2 Impact of Oxypurinol on SUA

Serum uric acid (SUA) was measured at monthly intervals throughout the 6-month follow-up period. As depicted, oxypurinol effectively lowered SUA by approximately 2 mg/dl, and this effect was evident within 1 month of therapy. *Indicates p < 0.0001 versus placebo and is based on a repeated measures mixed model with baseline as a covariate and change from baseline as the dependent variable.
