Hello,
The new pill you just started may need a week or two to give its effects and your body to get used to it.
Probably you are should take diuretics such furosemide to lower your blood pressure since you are experiencing episodes of too high blood pressure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
