My wife, Ms. Pkmklvmdani is 59 years old, weight 60 kg. has swelling on both of her knees and ankle. She has a slight pain in her knees. She was seen by a orthopedic surgeon, who has opined that it is due to weakening of bones. She had been prescribed the following medicines:
Ranitidine 150 mg
Bignac SR
Gemfos 35 mg
Shelcal 500 mg

She had taken the above medicines for a month but she does'nt fine any relief. She is also a patient of hypertension, for which she has been taking medication separately.
