Gout is one of the most common forms of inflammatory arthritis. Medical care for gout includes non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This paper reviews the efficacy and safety of NSAIDs prescribed for the acute attack of gout, in particular, AMBENIUM® parenteral. It was demonstrated that phenylbutazone is a powerful NSAID that provides significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. Considering a broad spectrum of adverse reactions of NSAIDs, these agents should be prescribed and used under in-depth analysis of patient’s condition, comorbidities and the level of their decompensation, and potential drug interactions. In addition, optimal dosages and duration of NSAID treatment are of particular importance. The authors conclude that AMBENIUM® parenteral is an effective and safe therapeutic modality for gout. Its profile and risk/benefit ratio are regarded as “favorable” compared to other NSAIDs. KEYWORDS: gout, arthritis, pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, parenteral, efficacy, safety.
