Enalapril and Felodipine
Lexxel Logo
Brand name(s): Lexxel
Why is this medication prescribed?
The combination of enalapril and felodipine is used to treat high blood pressure. It decreases certain chemicals that tighten the blood vessels so blood flows more smoothly and the heart can pump blood more efficiently. It also relaxes your blood vessels so your heart does not have to pump as hard.This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

leg pains
My mother had been taking oxprenolol for a long time and was switched to valsartan 2-3 weeks ago. After aboout 10 days she suddenly got very severe pain in one leg, particularly the knee and ankle. After a few nights without sleep, she contacted her doctor who has now switched her to felodipine. Four days later, the leg pain is not decreasing.
I have 2 questions:
How long can the leg pains continue now she has stopped taking valsartan? We assumed the pain would start decreasing as soon as she stopped, but there is no improvement yet. The prescribed painkillers (oral and Ibuleve cream) are not helping, so she has had almost no sleep for over a week and is not coping well.
Joint pains are listed as a side effect of the felodipine. We know that it is in a different category of drug to valsartan (it is a calcium channel blocker), but is it likely to cause the same type of pain (sudden onset knee/ankle pain)? If so, it is going to be difficult to know whether any continuing leg pain is still the effect of the valsartan or due to the felodipine.
