Uricase Indication
For treatment of hyperuricemia, reduces elevated plasma uric acid levels (from chemotherapy)
Uricase Pharmacology
Drugs used to treat lympohoid leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and acute myelogenous leukemia often lead to the accumulation of toxic plasma levels of purine metabolites (i.e. uric acid). The injection of rasburicase reduces levels of uric acid and mitigates the toxic effects of chemotherapy induced tumor lysis.
