Uric acid is a poorly soluble end product of purine metabolism in humans.Hyperuricaemia plays important role in the development of gout.Management of gout is reduction in serum uric acid levels 6 mg/dl.This study is single blind randomized controlled study.The aim of study was to evaluate the efficacy of individualized homoeopathic medicine on the basis of reportorial analysis in the management of hyperuricaemia in primary gout.In medicinal group who received individualized homoeopathic remedy after repertorial analysis, serum uric acid (SUA) was reduced to 4.5 ± 1.56 from 8.6 ± 0.67 with mean reduction of 4.1 ± 0.89.Similarly VAS score was also reduced to 1.5 ± 1.57 from 7.2 ± .79, with mean reduction of 5.7 ± 0.77 in control group who received Colchicum autumnale M.T. as Standard Medicine serum uric acid (SUA) was reduced to 7.9 ± 0.78 from 8.5 ± 0.62 with means reduction of 0.6 ± 0.16.VAS score also reduced to 5.1 ±1.42 from 6.70 ± 0.87 with mean reduction of 1.6 ± 0.55.The result shows that mean score reduction in medicinal group were higher than the mean score reduction in control group, and the difference was also statistically significant p< .0001.
