How would you manage gout with hyperuricemia >10 mg/dl despite the maximum dose of allopurinol plus probenecid and a prior allergic reaction to pegloticase?

I am not sure what dose of allopurinol the patient is taking, how long he was on pegloticase, and if he had MTX or MMF with it. I can usually reduce the uric acid level with allopurinol and febuxostat. The key question here is whether the patient is taking the drug daily or not.
