My mother aged 75yrs is having mutiple infarct and is undergoing treatment of Ecospirin 150AV, Syndopa 110 (twice a day), Donamem5mg (twice daily) and linotril 0.25mg at night. She has difficulty in sitting and standing up but able to walk slowly. Last week for enabling her to move easily, doc prescribed 0.25 mg Rasalect (morn only) and she is taking for past one week. Since yesterday she is having sever back ache and not able to move an inch. Is it because of Rasalect?

Hello dear and thanks for the query
Muscle spasm and cramps, joint and bone pain are the common side effect of this drug. But as you are using this drug for a week only, I do not think that drugs causing this.
As your mother as multiple problems we have to investigated her for the other causes of the back pain.This can be due to long sitting or lying down.
Consult you treating doctor before giving next dose of rasalect and find out the other cause of pain if any?
