Benemid (Probenecid)

General information

Benemid belongs to a class of drugs known as uricosurics. It lowers high levels of uric acid in your body by helping the kidneys to get rid of uric acid. When uric acid levels get too high, crystals can form in the joints, causing gout. Lowering uric acid levels may also help your kidneys. Benemid is used to prevent gout and gouty arthritis. It will not treat a sudden/severe attack of gout and may make it worse. Benemid is sometimes used along with penicillin antibiotics to increase antibiotic blood levels. This increase makes the antibiotic work better at treating certain infections. Probenecid works by decreasing the kidneys' ability to remove the antibiotic from the body.

Directions

Take Benemid exactly as prescribed by your doctor. To prevent gout, take this medication by mouth, usually twice daily with food or antacids to reduce stomach upset. The usual adult dose for hyperuricemia is 500 mg twice daily and the maximum dose is 2 grams daily. When combined with penicillin type antibiotics to treat infections, the usual dose is 500 mg 4 times daily. It is recommended to drink a full glass of water with each dose and at least another 8 glasses a day while taking this drug in order to prevent kidney stones.

Before taking Benemid you should talk with your doctor if you have kidney disease, stomach ulcer, kidney stones, cancer treatment, certain enzyme deficiency, peptic ulcer disease. This drug may make you dizzy. Do not drive or perform tasks that require alertness. Limit alcoholic beverages.
