Hello,
The medications you are taking does not cause swelling of ankles and feel.Swelling of ankles and feet could be due to uncontrolled blood pressure as per the reading you have mentioned.Daily intake of salt has to be reduced.
I would advise you to consult a physician for change of medications and further evaluation of the swelling.
