Summary
Brief summary
A number of observational studies have indicated that urate has positive effects on bone. Inosine is a nutritional supplement (available as an over the counter supplement ) that increases serum urate levels. We plan a six month randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 120 postmenopausal female participants. Participants will be randomised to one of two groups (60 participants per group): either placebo or inosine 1g daily (500mg morning, 500mg evening). The coprimary endpoints will be change in markers of bone health (P1NP and ßCTX). Key secondary endpoints will be measures of kidney function, blood pressure and other features of metabolic syndrome.
