medicines that can cause  gout
Salicylate, which is a main ingredient of aspirin and other analgesics, can also trigger an attack of gout. Even though these medications are often used in the treatment of gout pain, they can sometimes interfere with the kidney's ability to eliminate uric acid and thus may trigger more gout attacks.
Cases of gout have increased in recent years. This increase is likely due to an aging population, dietary and lifestyle changes, greater use of medicines, such as diuretics (water pills), all of which can lead to a high uric acid level in the body.
