Hello Doctor. My uric acid was high in my last test report done a month ago. I am taking Febutas 40 for it. Can I drink lemon water every day? I used to have it, but now I am not sure whether it is good or bad for high uric acid. Please advise. Thanks.

Yes, lemon water is generally safe and may help. It is low in purines and does not increase uric acid. Continue Febutas as prescribed.

Question

My test result shows a level of 165.9 mg per dL. What is the normal range for this? I eat a lot of meat, could that be the reason for this high value? What steps can I take to lower it?

Hello, For the past 4 to 5 days, I have been experiencing frequent urination. My urine report shows the presence of uric acid crystals. Can uric acid crystals cause frequent urination, or could prediabetes be the reason? Please review the attached urine report.
