Metabolite Identification
Common NameFebuxostat
DescriptionFebuxostat, also known as feburic or uloric, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as thiazolecarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are heterocyclic compounds containing a thiazole ring which bears a carboxylic acid group (or a derivative thereof). Febuxostat is a drug which is used for the treatment of hyperuricemia in patients with gout. Febuxostat is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). A 1,3-thiazolemonocarboxylic acid that is 4-methyl-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid which is substituted by a 3-cyano-4-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl group at position 2. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Febuxostat is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Febuxostat is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
