Need Medication For Acid Reflux And Grid

I have acid reflux and gird.Have been able to control it pretty well , sipping water,that seems to push things back down,also a change of diet.I found out that my blood pressure was high so my Doctor put me on lisinopril and i developed a cough so , but it did lower my blood pressure,as low as 109/69 and a high of 145/85.Because of the cough she switched me over to losartan 50mg .The cough is still here after a week and my blood pressure is up around 145/85-95.Should i give it more time.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I appreciate your concern as long as the Acid reflex is concern this can be best control with the ppi (Proton pump inhibitor ) and the best drug is Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in a day, if you have problem of cough because of the anti hypertensive drug then this need to be changed even after waiting for some time it is doubtful that cough will not be go away so it is better to avoid the present drug, hope this information helps you have nice day.
