  • 14. Any contraindication to febuxostat or allopurinol (with reference to the summary of product characteristics).
  • 15. Subject is unable to take either of the protocol-required gout flare prophylactic medications (NSAID or colchicine) due to contraindications or intolerance, e.g. hypersensitivity, active gastric ulcer disease, renal impairment and/or changes in liver enzymes
  • 16. Participation in another trial of an investigational drug or device within 30 days prior to screening, or prior treatment with investigational product(s)
  • 17.
