Could my daily leg pain, acidity, and frequent bowel movements (3 to 4 times a day) be side effects of my medications?Megaglipton 20, Glycomate 850 SR, Telmikined 40, Amlodac 5 mg, Pantocid 40, and Tryca 0.25?or are they related to my fasting, controlled diabetes, high blood pressure, or history of stones, and what should I do to manage them?
Hello. It is completely understandable to feel concerned about these symptoms. Your frequent bowel movements and acidity are common side effects of Metformin (Glycomate SR), especially when fasting, which can worsen stomach irritation. Your leg pain could be linked to Amlodipine (Amlodac), which sometimes causes fluid buildup or mild discomfort in the legs, or potentially muscle aches from Teneligliptin (Megaglipton). While your diabetes and blood pressure are well-controlled, fasting can alter how your body reacts to these medicines. Please do not stop your medications. I gently advise consulting your doctor to review your Metformin and Amlodipine doses and to discuss a safe meal plan for fasting. We want to ensure you stay comfortable.
