I also have gout. Weed does help somewhat during intense flare-ups. However, NSAIDs inhibit cannabis reuptake (or something), so you can't effectively use both weed and an NSAID. And given the choice between the two, NSAIDs are much more effective for me.

Given the incredibly low toxicity of cannabis, "more cannabis" should be a working strategy here. 2x, 5x, 20x the dose until you get past the new threshold caused by NSAIDs?

  You can only get so high. After a while more cannabis won't have an effect.

    Ever tried concentrates? You might go to sleep for a while, but "not have an effect?" Heh.

      I've tried moon rocks, edibles, concentrates, vaporizers, bongs, stream-rollers, hash, and anything else you can name. You only get so high.

COX2 inhibitors can, but not Advil or Aleve... maybe a weaker NSAID and stronger/more cannabis would be a good combination?
