When to start Allopurinal?

Hello

I have suffered with gout for twenty years, sometimes stopping me working or attending family events (wrist gout was bloody awful).

I’ve finally been prescribed Allopurinal after reluctance from me and then my doctor.

I have had a flare up for a few weeks, now fading to a stiff ankle.
I was told I need to be gout free before starting the Allopurinal. Is this correct?

I’m on holiday in four weeks and want to allow the medication to kick in and allow me to enjoy my break.

Leon
Zulu
