Since you are taking antihypertensive medicine as well anti diabetic drugs .
Now having cough with thick phlegm ( as you didn't mention color of expectoration ) , so these symptoms may be due to these possibilities .
1 Asthmatic allergic bronchitis .
2 Bronchiectasis .
3 Tuberculosis .
So consult chest & tuberculosis specialist ( physician ) and get his opinion because physical as well as clinical examination is important in diabetic cases ( also hypertensive )particularly symptoms are more than 2 weeks .
