Hyperuricemia and gout has traditionally been regarded as the disease of the affluent, being associated with unhealthy lifestyle including alcohol consumption. It has been identified as a disease entity
since early period of Egyptian civilization and was
known to Hippocrates.1 It is now emerging as a serious public health and a clinical practice challenge for
a variety of reasons. Unfortunately, it has so far been
very narrowly seen in the limited context of gout and
urolithiasis. Traditionally, the role of diet has rightly
assumed a central and key position in the management of hyperuricemia but unfortunately with lesser
value attached to drug therapy for its more aggressive
control.
