Résumé
We report the case of a 77-year-old man with Parkinson's disease (PD) who experimented for the first time gout crisis after the initiation of levodopa. Levodopa was withdrawn, and colchicine and allopurinol were initiated to treat the gout crisis. Because of PD progression, levodopa was reintroduced, and the patient presented relapse of gout flare. To further explore the association between gout and levodopa, we extracted and synthetized all Individual Case Safety Reports of gout associated with levodopa in the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database, VigiBase
