Key Takeaways

  • Confirm diagnosis with a doctor – Rule out serious conditions like cellulitis or joint infections before treating gout.
  • NSAIDs (Naproxen, Indomethacin, Celebrex, Mobic, Ibuprofen) – Take 2-3x daily for 3-5 days to reduce pain/inflammation (avoid if you have ulcers, kidney disease, or take blood thinners).
  • Colchicine – Take 2 pills initially, then 1 pill 1-1.5 hours later to reduce inflammation (stop if nausea/diarrhea occurs).
  • Steroids (Prednisone, Methylprednisolone, joint injections) – Use short-term for severe flares (avoid with infections, uncontrolled diabetes, or glaucoma).
  • Supportive care – Rest/elevate the joint, apply ice/heat, and stay hydrated during flare-ups.

Bottom Line

Treat acute gout flares with NSAIDs, colchicine, or steroids (as prescribed), and use supportive care measures while avoiding uric acid-lowering drugs until the flare subsides.
