Reduction in urinary oxalate values by allopurinol.
A variety of substances have been used to prevent recurrence of stone disease. Recently there has been considerable interest in the ability of allopurinol to prevent stone recurrence. This article discusses the effect of allopurinol on the urinary oxalate in a group of stone formers. A significant reduction was obtained especially in subjects in whom the blood urate levels exceeded 300 mumol./L. Possible mechanisms explaining the mode of action of the drug are discussed.

The effect of allopurinol on urinary oxalate excretion in stone formers.
Allopurinol is a drug which could be valuable in the treatment of stone patients. In 29 subjects treated with 300 mg of the drug per day it has been found that there was a significant fall in urine oxalate excretion if the blood urate was above 330 mumol/l. In 10 subjects followed for 1 year the urine oxalate was significantly reduced and maintained at a lower level than the original.
