Hi,
Thank you for your query.
Cough needs physical examination to examine lungs to look for any abnormal signs such as wheezing or crepitation on which the cough medication depends.
Continue the medications as you are taking for high blood pressure and consult the doctor for examination and prescription of an appropriate cough medication.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
