The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a nurse-led telehealth support can help people with gout better manage their condition and stick to their urate-lowering medication after they leave care at a rheumatology clinic. One group will receive nurse-led telehealth support, while the other group will return to follow-up with their regular doctor (general practitioner). The study includes adults with gout who meet specific medical criteria and are taking medication such as Allopurinol or Adenuric. Participants must also be able to read and write Danish. The aim is to help patients reach a healthy uric acid level in their blood after 52 weeks. Those in the nurse-led group can choose one of four types of support: 1. App-Based Support - an app gives information and reminders. 2. Letter Reminders - messages are sent through digital or postal mail. 3. Text Reminders - SMS messages are sent every three months. 4. Phone Support - nurses call three times a year to check in. Participants will be recruited from five hospitals in Central Denmark.
