Lower Back Pain, Severe Abdominal Pain. Given Atenolol, Atacand, Percocet. Worry About Kidneys?
My Dr. gave me Atenolol 25mg on June 28th. I ma to take this in am along with my Atacand 16mg/12.5mg. For the last week I have had severe abdominal and low back pain to the point of having to take 1/2 Percocet. I cant seem to relieve the pain. I have tried heat also. Wanting to know if I should stop Atenolol. Tried called the office, but Dr. is not in until next week and I don't want to go to emerg for this. Can this cause low back pain and I'm also worried about my kidneys.
Hi, many thanks for the query! Doesn't seem to be due to Atonolol. This can be muscular pain, or stone related.. You need to do- USG KUB empty stomach, X-ray KUB, Urine (R/M), RFT. Till then take antispasmodics, antacids, pain killers, muscle relaxants with your doctor's opinion. Drink plenty of water so that at least 2 litres of urine is voided in 24 hrs. Wish you a good health. Take care. Regards.
