Cough For 5 Months

I started taking Coveram last December 2017 and after 1 week i developed cough which I find very disturbing. The effect of it was exemplary and just maintained my BP but the cough is really my concern. Just this March, my follow up check up, I talked to my Doctor and raised my concern regarding the cough. He changed my anti hypertensive medications to Twynsta. Until now my cough does not go away. What can be the possible reason for this? I am taking Vitamin C daily and maintained my hydration. Please help.

REPORT

Coeram contains Perindopril and Amlodipine, and Twynsta contains Telmisartan and Amlodipine, and according to NIH reports, the Amlodipine is notorious for causing a dry cough as a side effect. The problem is that once that cough starts, it usually doesn't go away, so my best guess it that you need to try something without the Amlodipine in it.

I had the same problem, when I tried for a few months.

The NIH lists other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, increased urination, hypotension, and headache.

Are you still taking this same medication?
