Blood pressure drugs that belongs to group known as ACE inhibitor drugs, cause coughing as a side effect.
Furosemide is a diuretic drug, which antihypertensive action is based on increased excretion of water from body, leading to reduced blood volume, manifested as a low blood pressure.
It is well known that furosemide can cause extremely low blood pressure in some people. Extremely low blood pressure is more likely to happen when the medicine is first started or when the dosage is changed.
This is why it is important to drink fluids regularly while taking furosemide.
Blood pressure in hypertensive patients is usually treated with combinations of drugs from different pharmacological classes.
Since, you find ACE inhibitor drug and increased dose of diuretic drug problematic, talk with your physician to lower the diuretic dose and to combine it with drug from beta blockers class.
