Is It Safe To Take Zerodol Along With Saaz And Medrol For Ankle Pain And Swelling?

I was having ankle pain & swelling in my ankle joints. clinical tests done & found HLA b-27 positive. Doctor prescribed SAAZ 1gm two tab daily and Medrol 4mg one tab daily. After three months 60% pain & swelling removed. now doctor advised me to take Zerodol-P along with SAAZ & MEDROL for another three months. I have gone Angioplasty and using S-Numolo 5mg , Ecospirin & Minipress XL Should I continue the above medicines ? What may be the possible side effects ?

hi
In my opinion,if symptoms are relieved 60% then you can taper off medrol and reduce saaz dose ,if the doctor agrees.Zerodol P may be taken for acute exacerbations of pain only in short course of 3-5 dys after meals.You may continue heart medicines as such
best wishes
