No Gout is the result of an excessive amount of uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is normally produced as part of the digestion of foods that have purines. Normally this is removed from the body with urine. However if the kidneys are not able to handle the amount of uric acid it turns into uric acid crystals in your body. these are very fine sharp crystals that start of by settling in the joints of extremity's like toes and fingers causing excruciating pain.

Antibiotics can potentially worsen gout by disrupting the balance of gut bacteria, which may influence uric acid metabolism and excretion.
