About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop a gout action plan in primary care setting in Singapore among adult patients with gout, and to learn if the gout action plan can improve gout control.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* How do we develop a gout action plan in primary care setting in Singapore? * What is the feasibility and estimate effectiveness of the developed gout action plan? * Does gout action plan reduce frequency of gout flares in patients with gout?
Researchers will compare gout action plan to usual clinical care to see whether gout action plan helps in improving gout control.
Participants in intervention arm will be:
* given gout action plan and follow up for a course of 6 months * asked to keep track of their gout symptoms * follow up on the number of gout flares they have.
