Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am experiencing some pain in my left hip. I didn t know if there could be a connection. I had reclast last week. I am also taking colestipol for diarrhea which I have had since I went to the hospital with diverticulitis and I contracted C-dis back in March.
I've read your question and understanding your concern.
I guess you are already suffering with weak bones as you are taking Reclast. So you are more prone to the side effects of medicines that causes musculoskeletal side effects.
Colestipol rarely causes musculoskeletal and joint pains. You can ask your treating doctor to decrease the dose of Colestipol or ask for alternative with lesser side effects.
Hopefully I answered all your queries. Wish you Good Luck
