ABSTRACT
Niqris [gout] is a condition characterised by recurrent attacks of acute pain and swelling at first affecting only one joint, usually the metatarso-phalangeal joint of the big toe, later becoming polyarticular. Since ancient times it is believed that an excessive intake of baadi ghiza [food containing high purine contents] is the primary and essential cause of gout which results in deposition of Maddah-e-nigris [urates of tophi] in the articular and periarticular tissues. Although several potent and effective drugs like Allopurinol [Zyloric] and Sulphinpyrazone [Artiran] are available in modern medical treatment, they are not without side effects like gastritis, peptic ulcers, tolerance and dependence. Among several useful Unani drugs, Suranjan [Colchium luteum] is one which is claimed to be effective in this ailment. On an average the oral use of Suranjan Showed relief in symptoms in 94.3% of cases in 30 days without any side effect. Our study included 20 cases of chronic gout
