Dear Sir

If the pain in calf has been of longer duration,present since weeks than the drugs prescribed by your doctor are fine. The drugs prescribed are safe.

If you still have apprehensions then non opiod drug like Ibuprofen will be safe alternative.

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you
