Colchicine alters the way your body responds to uric acid crystals. Too much uric acid in the body is what leads to the symptoms of gout (swelling and pain).

Probenecid reduces the amount of uric acid in your body by causing it to be passed in your urine.

Colchicine and probenecid is a combination medicine used to prevent gout attacks. This medication will not cure gout and it will not stop a gout attack that has already started.

Colchicine and probenecid may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
