If you have claudication then there is most likely atherosclerosis in your arteries, and although it may not cause you a big problem now it easily could.
It is always a good idea to continue your medication unless you are experiencing intolerable side effects. But if you do have concerns you should discuss them with your doctor to see what they think.
