DRUG IN FOCUS: FEBUXOSTAT

Febuxostat is used to lower uric acid levels in people with gout. Febuxostat works by reducing the amount of uric acid made by the body. An increased uric acid level can cause gout.

Because of the risk of very serious heart-related problems and stroke with febuxostat, febuxostat should be used only after treatment with a medication called Allopurinol did not work to lower your uric acid level, caused serious side effects, or is not recommended by your doctor. Febuxostat should be used only if you have symptoms caused by a high blood uric acid level.

Tolak Angin means “to reject wind” in Indonesian language and is taken for a combination of symptoms called “masuk angin” (translation: entry of wind). The symptoms include upset stomach, dizziness, flatulence, nausea, and chills; they are basically, the tell-tale signs when you’re about to get sick.

Tolak Angin has been trusted by many generations in Indonesia where locals rely on traditional herbal medicine known as “jamu” to maintain health and alleviate common sickness. Long before modern medication prevailed, Indonesians relied on traditional remedies and conventional medicines like in many other Asian countries.

Cefixime is in a class of medications called cephalosporin antibiotics. It works by killing bacteria.
