I am suffering from GOUT due to uric acid. every year it occurs twice ie after 6 months regularly from last 5 years. generally it use to be for 4-7 days, but this time it has attacked more than a month. Along with endocap SR, doctor has prescribed me NUSAM 400. Does it have any side effect if I take these medicines for more than a month? Kindly suggest me.......

I have been prescribed this med for liver pain, can any one tell me what is weak DNA alkylating agent, does taking nusam 400 cause DNA damage?
Hi Deepak,
Based on my research, NUSAM 400 is a nutritional supplement that contains the active ingredient S-Adenosyl methionine (ademetionine, AdoMet, SAM, SAMe, SAM-e).
In the United States and Canada, SAM is sold as a nutritional supplement under the marketing name SAM-e (also spelled SAME or SAMe; pronounced "sam ee" or "Sammy"). SAM is also marketed under the Gumbaral, Samyr, Adomet, Heptral, Agotan, Donamet, Isimet and Admethionine brand names as a prescription drug approved in Russia, Italy, and several countries within the European Union. Some research, including multiple clinical trials, has indicated taking SAM on a regular basis may help fight depression, liver disease, and the pain of osteoarthritis. All other indications are not yet proven.
How to take:
SAM is best absorbed on an empty stomach. Enteric-coated tablets packaged in foil or foil blister packs increase stability and improve absorption. SAM should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent deterioration.
Adverse effects:
Gastrointestinal disorder, dyspepsia and anxiety can occur with SAM consumption. Long-term effects are unknown. SAM is a weak DNA-alkylating agent.
I've heard that it's expensive so you may want to consider asking for a less expensive generic version of this medication, if there is one available.
Do you have anymore questions?
