Lesinurad, sold under the brand name Zurampic, is a medication used to treat high blood uric acid associated with gout. It is only recommended with either allopurinol or febuxostat when these medications are not sufficient. It is taken by mouth.

Common side effects include headache, kidney problems, and GERD. Other side effects may include heart problems and stroke. Safety in pregnancy is unclear. It works by blocking URAT1 and OAT4.

Lesinurad was approved for medical use in the United States in 2015. While it was approved in Europe in 2016, this approval was subsequently withdrawn. It is no longer commercially available in the United States as of 2021.
