Anyone ever get gout from their meds?
I didn't have a problem until I went back to Geodon - 80mg for a little over a week. Now I'm left with gout!
I think it can be a small side effect, but I'm afraid my regular MD is going to want me off AAPs due to all the side effects.
I've dropped back to 40mg. Don't feel as stable, but I'm afraid 80mg might have caused the gout.
I've never had gout and am used to being active everyday.
I can't believe this. The podiatrist said a lot of meds can contribute to gout!
What now? Down to 20mg and off Grodon and on to the next?
Maybe a low dose of Lamictal for depression won't cause gout.
Very upset and frustrated.
