Possibly: However, hypertension and gout are often associated so it may not be the indapamide. High uric acid is the result of overproduction (genetic), under excretion by the kidney, or lifestyle (alcohol, red meat, shrimp, etc.).

If you feel : That it did, you need to discuss with your internist who put you on it and they may decide to put you on something else. You may also be placed on a medication to lower your uric acid levels.
