Clarification regarding aten 50 usage

2026-04-14 08:34:00
My mother has been diagnosed with neurogenic claudication with spinal stenosis along with high blood pressure.She has been prescribed aten 50 to be used every morning for this high BP condition.Dramatically after taking aten 50 her legs feel completely free from pain or stiffness or numbness for upto 10 hours till evening and after that again pains , tingling, stiffness starts .So can she take another aten content medication in evening as she is comfortable only with aten ,she couldn't tolerate any other composition like telmisartan ,beta blocker like concor .So please kindly clarify me

Hello! Neurogenic claudication has no relation with a medication like aten which is being given for hypertension purpose. This could be a placebo effect.
Next Steps
Rather needs scanning and neurogenic claudication workup and starting of related meds

Neurogenic claudication relief has nothing to deal with antihypertensive drugs,  it's probably a false sense of relief
