What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Knees While On Atenolol?
I am on 50 mg atenolol daily with low dose aspirin. I have knee pain and swollen knees which seems to be getting worse. I am taking supplements along with turmeric liquid every day and I see no let up. I believe atenolol is the culprit. I was diagnosed with svt over 2 yrs ago and have been on atenolol and low dose aspirin ever since. I hate drugs because they cause more side effects than the problem itself. Am 76 yrs old and do not want to be on drugs that cause more problems.

What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Knees While On Atenolol?
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor services. I have reviewed your query and here is my advise. * The anti hypertensive medications can give peripheral edema as involving ankle or foot , but not knee. * The current issue sounds to be due to arthritis related or else. * An MRI of the knee will reveal best results for final management. Thanks. Take care.
