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
