Colcrys (colchicine) is a prescription medication approved for both preventing and treating gout attacks and for treating familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Colcrys is the only colchicine medication approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The safety angle of the med would be addressed by an professional - doc/pharmacist, please take care & be well.
