Oxipurinol (INN, oroxypurinolUSAN) is aninhibitor ofxanthine oxidase.[1] It is anactive metabolite ofallopurinol and it is cleared renally.[2] In cases of renal disease, this metabolite will accumulate to toxic levels. By inhibiting xanthine oxidase, it reducesuric acid production. High serum uric acid levels may result ingout,kidney stones, and other medical conditions.
