RE:"While this can be partially normalized with a reduced purine diet, this still leaves an elevated level of uric acid which can lead to long term kidney damage. Taking allopurinol fully normalizes uric acid levels."

Besides that most Kidney stones (75-85%) are Calcium based.
10-15% are uric acid based. About the same for Struvite based (mainly in women). It's extremely important to know which ones you have.
