Hi All I have been on different by medication over the last 2 years, these have included amlodipine, rampiril, indapamide and losartan. Due to various reasons the doses have changed and I am now on Amlodipine 5mg, indapamide 2.5 mg and Losartan 100 mg (recently increased from 50 mg.

the reason I'm writing is that over the past year or so I have been having really bad joint aches and pains in my hips, knees and feet, so bad that I am having difficulty walking. I am 53 and have put these problems down to getting older blaming arthritis, but I am wondering now if the medication could be to blame? Has anyone else had this season problems please

thanks X
