Patients were randomly assigned to two arms: Group I (study group): Included 60 patients who received Febuxostat added to the traditional treatment (IV hydration and N-acetylcysteine). The patients received Feburic 80 mg within 6–18 h before and within 6–18 h after the coronary intervention (a time gap of 24 h between two doses).
