Gout is caused by a buildup of uric acid in the body. You can help prevent it by not eating foods rich in purines such as red meat. Taking the drugs allopurinol or purinecid is the best way of avoiding the build up of uric acid.

Prevention of acute gout involves:

* maintaining a good fluid intake;
* weight reduction;
* dietary changes;
* reduction of alcohol intake; and
* medications to reduce hyperuricemia
