Allopurinol

For the last eight years, I get 2 to 4 severe gout attacks to the point I’m on crutches for up to two months sometimes until the flare is gone I’ve quit drinking beer and limited my red meat significantly mostly live off chicken and vegetables and have not had a severe attack in over a year. But the last few months I’ve been getting little mini attacks that last for about a week, but it’s not to the point that I can’t get my shoe on or walk but I kind of feel like a big one is coming and I’m planning on starting my 100 mg allopurinol. My question is, does it make you dizzy and drowsy all the time I’m a service technician and I would prefer to take it in the morning, I don’t like taking medicine in the first place and the dizziness and drowsiness is the biggest reason I have not ever started it. I’m just like your honest opinions about how it made you feel when you first started it thank you.
