I've been having this pain between my shoulder and elbow on my right arm when I wake up in the morning. It's been happening for the past month or two. I usually sleep on my left side, and I've had some fractured vertebrae diagnosed in my mid-upper back along with osteoporosis. Most of the time, the pain lessens after an hour or two, but today it was really bad. Could this be related to my previous back issues or osteoporosis? What should I do about this?

Can you tell me if taking febuxostat 40 would be okay instead of febutaz 40? Ive been taking febutaz 40mg for about 13 days now, but I ran out and the pharmacy near me only had febuxostat 40. They said its the same thing, but I just want to make sure its safe before switching. Is there any difference between the two?
Those are exactly the same medicines , just with different brand names
