Can Losartan Or Rosuvastatin Cause Cough?

Hello, I take Losartan 50 mg tab every day for high blood pressure. I also take rosuvastatin calcium 10 mg tab for chlosteral. The last few weeks I have been coughing but have no cold. I thought maybe it was allergies but now beginning to think I have an allergy to one of the pills. Can this be?
