How this medicine works

The current ZYLOPRIM label describes allopurinol as a xanthine-oxidase inhibitor and explains that the enzyme participates in conversion of hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid; its metabolite oxypurinol also inhibits the enzyme. This explains a drug-action pathway, not gout, stones, joint pain or another symptom, and it does not decide individual suitability, tablet count, initiation, combination or switching.

Check the market, names, dosage form and route together

A medicine may use different brand names across markets. Keep the market, brand, generic name, dosage form and route together; one matching field does not prove that two packs are the same or interchangeable.

FOR EVERYDAY QUESTIONS

After the leaflet, continue with the question you still need to check

What this pack is

ZYLOPRIM is the brand name in this record; allopurinol is the generic name. Read both together with the dosage form (oral tablet).

What this page can show

This is a source-traceable public record. It helps you read the product identity and its listed source documents; each market still needs its own current record check.

What to bring to the next conversation

Bring the actual pack, the label or prescription, and a complete medicine list when you speak with a pharmacist or clinician.

PRODUCT PRESENTATION IDENTITY

Strength, pack and device identity

Package strength is not an individual dose. These fields help identify the exact labelled product; they do not calculate how much, how often, a missed-use action, splitting, switching or conversion.

How to read a score line: ‘scored’ or ‘unscored’ first identifies this labelled presentation. A score line by itself does not permit self-splitting, reducing or changing the product. Only an explicit statement in the current label for this exact presentation, checked with a pharmacist against the prescription, can support any further handling.

3 source-backed strength, pack or device records — open the full list

First match the market, dosage form and labelled amount on the pack in hand. The number of tablets, sachets or devices in a pack is not a personal dose or schedule.

LABEL READING · NOT A PRESCRIPTION

ZYLOPRIM label reading: 100, 200 and 300 mg plus scoring identify a tablet; they do not answer “how many tablets”

Reading level: drug-specific label reading. This record has been expanded around its dosage form or a higher-risk reading question; the current target-market label and professional review still apply.

This module uses the current U.S. DailyMed public label to check ZYLOPRIM, allopurinol, labelled amount per tablet, exact NDC, 90-tablet bottle, tablet appearance and target market. It provides no individual tablet count, initiation, increase, missed-use remedy, splitting, stopping, combination or switching plan.

  • Check ZYLOPRIM, allopurinol, 100/200/300 mg, the actual NDC, oral-tablet form and target market together. Milligrams are the labelled amount in this exact tablet, not an answer to how many tablets anyone should take; a shared generic name, another strength or another dosage form cannot be self-converted from a number.
  • The current label describes shape, imprint and functional scoring for the three tablet presentations. These are product-identity clues, not a way to authenticate a photograph or permission to self-split, make up or adjust use. If the actual pack, prescription or swallowing situation differs, take the pack to a pharmacist or prescribing team.
  • The label links HLA-B*58:01 with risk of severe allopurinol hypersensitivity and explains that the meaning of testing depends on timing around treatment and population context. This page neither recommends universal screening nor turns a positive, negative or existing genetic report into a conclusion about starting, continuing, stopping or switching; take the original report, actual pack and complete medicine list to a professional.
  • The current label flags thiazide diuretics, ampicillin, amoxicillin, azathioprine and mercaptopurine among co-medications requiring particular review. It is not a checklist for self-stopping, adding, spacing or switching products; give prescription medicines, OTC products, supplements and recent changes together to a pharmacist or clinician. With a new rash, blisters, mouth/eye discomfort, fever, lip/facial swelling, breathing difficulty or another acute severe concern, prioritise local urgent medical and prescribing-team pathways rather than self-managing from a webpage or self-restarting treatment.

PHARMACOVIGILANCE · OFFICIAL ROUTES

Check safety information in the right market

Start with the public label or product record linked to this dossier, then use the official safety routes below for the market that applies to the medicine in hand.

Match five details before using a safety record

  1. Brand and generic nameBoth must match the medicine named by the record.
  2. Dosage form and strengthTablet, capsule, injection, inhaler, patch and eye drop are not interchangeable.
  3. Market and notice dateA record applies only to the country or region and date it names.
  4. Lot, pack and manufacturerRecord these only when the official notice specifically names them.
  5. Current product informationA historical record may have been superseded by the current label.

This checklist only helps organise the right question. It does not create a personal conclusion about stopping, switching, dose, combination or suitability.

PACK · LABEL · MEDICINE LIST

Six checks for this medicine pack

Use this card to organise questions about ZYLOPRIM (allopurinol). Keep the exact pack, its current label and the full medicine list together.

  1. Identify the exact product

    ZYLOPRIM is the brand in this record and allopurinol is the active-ingredient name. Check both with the dosage form (Oral tablets: 100 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg (as listed in the current U.S. label; this dossier separately displays three 90-tablet bottle panels)) and the market on the actual pack.

  2. Read the labelled strength in context

    mg, mcg, mg/mL or a percentage describes the labelled amount in one tablet, capsule, measured volume, spray or other unit. It is not an answer to how many units a person should take.

  3. Check before splitting or opening

    Before splitting, crushing, chewing or opening anything, find an explicit instruction for this exact product in its current label and ask a pharmacist. A score line or a previous pack is not enough by itself.

  4. Put every product on one list

    Include prescriptions, over-the-counter products, eye drops, creams, vitamins, minerals, herbs and supplements. A pharmacist or prescriber needs the whole list before any combination, alternation, switch or stop is considered.

  5. Ask a specific pharmacogenetics question

    Ask which medicine, which gene and what clinical decision a result could change. A gene–drug association does not mean broad genetic testing is needed for everyone and must not be used to change treatment without professional review.

  6. Know when to seek urgent help

    For a suspected overdose, a severe allergic reaction, fainting or difficulty breathing, use the local emergency or poison-information service now. Do not wait for a website reply or alter several medicines to test what caused it.

This card does not calculate a dose, decide whether medicines can be combined, or replace a clinician or pharmacist. Market-specific current labels and the person's full context still need review.

HOW IT WORKS · NOT A TREATMENT PLAN

How allopurinol works: it affects xanthine oxidase in a uric-acid production pathway

  • “Affects a uric-acid production pathway” does not mean every joint pain, redness, stone, laboratory number or other symptom has the same cause, or that a webpage can decide whether allopurinol is needed. Diagnosis, tests, kidney context, the complete medicine list and the exact product label must be considered together by a professional.
  • A product that also affects uric acid, purines or xanthine oxidase, or whose name includes similar words, does not prove that products can be self-combined, alternated, milligram-converted or replaced from one pack to another. Brand, strength, dosage form, market and co-medications require item-by-item review.
  • Mechanism cannot decide genetic testing, diet, fluid intake, testing frequency, treatment duration, whether to stop or how to handle missed use. If a genetic or laboratory report already exists, discuss whether it relates to the current prescription with a pharmacist or clinician using the original materials, actual bottle and complete medicine list.

MARKET SCOPE

Market-record boundary

United States

Current public label and three exact 90-tablet bottle panels linked

The panels correspond respectively to NDC 70199-031-90 (100 mg), NDC 70199-032-90 (200 mg) and NDC 70199-033-90 (300 mg). They do not authenticate a product or establish actual availability, stock, individual tablet count, splitting, initiation, stopping, co-use or interchangeability.

Mainland China, EU, Japan and other markets

Market record not established

No local trade name, approval, packaging, supply, sale eligibility, originator/generic relationship or interchangeability is inferred from the U.S. label, NDC or brand name; every market version needs separate checking against current local regulatory information.

How to read this record

Read each document in its stated market, date and dosage-form context. A historical record is not a current label and does not support individual medical, substitution or purchasing conclusions.

Keep international and mainland China records separate

This page has a U.S. public history/regulatory archive but no mainland China record for this specific product. That does not establish whether the medicine exists, is approved or is available in mainland China. Verify product identity, dosage form, strength, holder and the current label item by item.

RECORD FAQ

Record questions

Do ZYLOPRIM 100, 200 or 300 mg tablets, or a scored tablet, mean that they can be self-split, adjusted or exchanged between packs?

No. Milligrams, shape, imprint and functional scoring are label-identity information for an exact tablet, not rules for individual tablet count, splitting, make-up use, initiation, stopping or switching. Take the actual bottle, prescription and complete medicine list to a pharmacist or prescribing team for review.

Does the HLA-B*58:01 information mean that everyone should be screened, or that a report can be used to self-start or stop allopurinol?

No. The current label links this marker with severe hypersensitivity risk, but whether testing is relevant requires professional assessment of treatment stage, population context, kidney function, prior reactions, complete medicine list and the exact prescription. This page does not recommend universal screening or use any report in place of clinical review.
