Description
Summary:In 2016, after 10 years since publication, the international guidelines of the European Antirheumatic League (EULAR) for the management of gout were updated for the first time. The final version of the updated guidelines includes three overarching postulates and 11 key recommendations evaluating principles of the symptomatic therapy of an acute attack of arthritis and, more importantly, strategies of urate-lowering therapy. The aim of the above-mentioned guidelines is the possibility of their practical use.
