Hi, If he was well controlled with Envas and Aten then I think you should continue with that. If he as cough because of Envas switch to Losrtan might help but an ACEI and ARB must be taken as he is having diabetes as well. As far as dyspepsia goes it could be a simple GERD, start him on some PPI (omez etc) for 2-3 wks and see for response .
