Product description
Colchicine is a widely prescribed medicine applied in adults when prevention and treatment of gout flares are needed.
The effects described below have been proposed as the potential mechanism of action for colchicine in gout.
1) Uric acid crystals located in the affected joint are taken up by macrophages. On this stage, Colchicine seems to intrude in the process of phagocytosis of those uric acid crystals.
2) Activated macrophages generate IL-1β by using intracellular inflammasomes. It is supposed that colchicine impairs the work of the inflammasome complex by inhibiting IL-1β activation.
3) Said IL-1β provides help with recruitment of neutrophils from the bloodstream directly into the affected joint. Colchicine potentially prevents neutrophils from migrating in the nidus of inflammation.
4) Since it is the activation and degranulation of the migrated neutrophils that contribute to acute pain associated with gout flare, colchicine is designed to successfully intervene with these processes, thus relieving the patient from constant pain.
Important! Colchicine is not a pain-killer and cannot be administered in treatments of pain caused by other conditions.
