Can I Take 'covance-D' For Pain In Limbs?

I am 50 years old.height.5.2 weight.90.I am suffering from severe swelling of hands, legs and ankles. I feel dizziness some times and loss of breath also. I do a lot of physical work around the house and feel tired afterwards. I have been taking Covance D tablet when I feel pain in my limbs. I have seen no side effects so far and am feeling good after I take it. Please advice if it is correct.

Hey,
Tab Covance D is not for pain in the limbs, it is a blood pressure medication.
So if you a hypertensive than continue taking it otherwise please check your bp from time to time.
Tab Covance D is a very good medication for BP contains combination of 2 medication (Losartan & hydrochlorothiazide). The hydrochlorothiazide part can decrease your Sodium especially at old age. So regularly check your sodium & potassium.

Wish you a good health
