To treat acute gout attack, for best results take colchicine at the first sign of the attack. The longer you wait to start taking the medication, the less effective it may be.
You may need to take a second lower dose of colchicine one (1) hour after the first dose if you still have gout pain.
Your dose will depend on the reason you are taking this medicine. Colchicine doses for gout and Mediterranean fever are different.
