1 colchicine and an NSAID such as ibuprofen, naproxen, Indocin, or similar, as prescribed by your doctor at the recommended dose for gout.

Next morning, repeat if your gout attack persists.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist. about a compatible painkiller that can be taken with your chosen NSAID, e.g. paracetamol. If pain is still unbearable 2 hours after taking NSAID, then take the additional pain relief.
