I looked up the medications and didn't find any mention of swollen feet, but that doesn't mean it isn't a valid side effect. I would recommend you contact your doctor to tell them about your experience and to ask their advice. If it is manageable side effect, your doctor may recommend that you continue to take the medication or you may need some tests.

 

You may also want to ask your question again in a SharePost - they tend to get more traffic than individual questions in this section, so you may have more luck with finding other people who have had the same experience that way.
