Abstract
Urinary DHA excretion in APRT deficiency patients decreased with conventional doses of both allopurinol and febuxostat. Febuxostat was, however, significantly more efficacious than allopurinol in reducing DHA excretion in the prescribed doses. This finding, which may translate into improved outcomes of patients with APRT deficiency, should be confirmed in a larger sample.
