Hello, no the medications you listed are not for gout, after the explanation of the uses of both I have listed some medications(for gout) which you must discuss with your Doctor.

Amlodipine Uses:

Amlodipine besylate (Norvasc) is a prescription medication licensed to treat conditions related to the heart and blood vessels. Specific amlodipine uses include:
Controlling high blood pressure (hypertension)
Treating heart disease (specifically coronary artery disease), including:

Angina treatment, including exercise-induced angina (chronic stable angina) and vasospastic angina (Prinzmetal's or variant angina)

Coronary artery disease in people who do not have heart failure.

Benazepril Uses

Benazepril hydrochloride (Lotensin) is a prescription medication that has been licensed to control high blood pressure (hypertension). It does not cure high blood pressure.
