Brief summary
This study is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial with two parallel arms. The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Kui-Yuan chewable tablets in patients with hyperuricemia.
Interventions
Kui-Yuan chewable tablets are the optimal ingredients found in sunflower dish that can reduce uric acid and anti-gout, including flavonoids, Coumarin (including scopolamine) and phenolic acids.
Placedo of Kui-Yuan Chewable Tablets are composed of L-arabinose, food starch and a few auxiliary materials.
