Photosynthesis absorbs carbon dioxide (CO2) and converts it into energy as biomass {CHO}. This is an important part of the carbon cycle as this is the primary step of the food chain and allows the carbon to be consumed and used by other species to grow. Respiration is the opposite process where biomass is consumed and CO2 is produced. Photosynthesis is often called a carbon sink.
Medications to treat gout attacks. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs include over-the-counter options such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and naproxen sodium (Aleve, others), as well as more-powerful prescription NSAIDs such as indomethacin (Indocin) or celecoxib (Celebrex).
After an acute gout attack resolves, your doctor may prescribe a low daily dose of colchicine to prevent future attacks. Corticosteroids. Corticosteroid medications, such as the drug prednisone, may control gout inflammation and pain. Corticosteroids may be administered in pill form, or they can be injected into your joint. Corticosteroids are generally reserved for people who can't take either NSAIDs or colchicine.
