Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Vitamin D intake is good for bone formation and remodeling and does not cause ankle pain as side effect. Cetirizine is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. It is used to treat cold or allergy symptoms. It can cause certain side effects like palpitations, increased heart rate, restlessness, hyperactivity, confusion and tremors. Its intake is not associated with ankle pain. Benicar is composed of Olmesartan, which is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Side effects which can occur with its consumption include: difficulty with breathing, body aches, cough, headache, tiredness or weakness. Its intake is not known to be associated with ankle pain. Kindly consult Orthopedician for clinical evaluation of your ankle pain and appropriate management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S.
