What Causes Lung Infection And Severe Elbow Pain After Taking Ramipril?

Hi, my daughter has just started taking ramipril for high blood pressure. She developed a lung infection after one week and started a course of antibioics. Within a few days she developed severe pain and swelling of her elbow which was diagnosed as a bursae, so given more antibiotics. Now a few days later she has developed severe swelling and pain in her knee and ankle. Is there any connection. She is 37 years old!
