I think it could be a side effect of Inapure. This medicine doesn't seem to be indispensable. So it may be worthwhile discussing the use of this medicine with your Physician or Cardiologist. Pregalin also has some side effects.
Duonase and Foracort may also be duplication.
But the final decision should be taken by your Physician or the Cardiologist.
Another thing which may cause cramps is sodium deficiency. Those can be helped by lime juice. But again it will depend on her BP, how often we give her lime juice.
I suggest you please consult your Physician because some medicines may have to be stopped.
