Detailed Description

Chronic kidney disease patients with hyperuricemia and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) 20-50 ml/min were treated by febuxostat or benzbromarone. Follow up the changes of serum uric acid, serum creatinine and GFR levels. Compare the effects on renal function of these two drugs.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Febuxostat
take orally, 40mg per day, for 1 year
Drug: Febuxostat
It acts as an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase, thus lowering urate concentrations in the body
Other Names:
  • Uloric
  • Adenuric
Experimental: Benzbromarone
take orally, 50mg per day, for 1 year
Drug: Benzbromarone
It is structurally related to the antiarrhythmic amiodarone, and it is a uricosuric agent and non-competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidase
Other Names:
  • Desuric
