Could Lotrel Drug Cause The Liver Problem?

I m taking the generic brand of lotrel to control my HBP for about 5 yrs. Other brands before this. Recently I developed a kidney stone and some simple cysts. Cat scan also showed a solid nodule in the right lobe of my LIVER. Did this drug possibly cause the liver problem too?

Hi.

No, the Lotrel would not have caused the liver nodule nor the cysts or the kidney stone.

The drug can effect liver function but not to the point of creating a nodule
