Drug Mode of Action ::  

Allopurinol is an inhibitor of the enzyme xanthine oxidase which converts hypoxanthine to xanthine then uric acid. The reduced production of uric acid relieves all symptoms associated with hyperuricaemia and gout. Inhibition of xanthine oxidase leads to accumulation of its substrates hypoxanthine and xanthine but since their renal clearance is more than 10 times that of uric acid, there is no risk of nephrolithiasis.

Drug Interactions ::

May inhibit the metabolism of mercaptopurine and azathioprine; reduce dose of mercaptopurine and azathioprine when given w/ allopurinol. May increase effect of warfarin and other coumarin anticoagulants. Increased excretion of the oxipurinol (metabolite) w/ salicylates or uricosuric agents. Increased toxicity w/ thiazide diuretics, some antibacterials, other antineoplastics, ciclosporin, some sulfonylurea antidiabetics, theophylline and vidarabine.
