Hello
Welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Joint pain may not be due to the drugs (Simvastatin and Lisinopril) you are taking but this could be due to arthritis changes, or could be due to viral infection but drugs may not be the cause that is being taken by you.
Hope I have answered your query, let me know for further assistance.
