Refractory Gout

Refractory Gout

The global Refractory Gout Market is gaining attention as a critical area in rheumatology, reflecting the need for effective therapies to treat patients who do not respond adequately to conventional urate-lowering therapies (ULTs). Gout, a chronic form of inflammatory arthritis, affects millions globally, and a subset of patients develop refractory gout, characterized by persistent flares, tophi, and joint damage despite treatment with standard medications like allopurinol or febuxostat.
