Zurampic is an antigout medication. Gout attacks happen because of a buildup of uric acid crystals in the body. The medication works by preventing your kidneys from reabsorbing uric acid. This helps your body get rid of uric acid through your urine. Lower uric acid levels in the body helps lessen gout attacks.
