Reflux / Cough after Blood Pressure Meds

Hi
I've been on omeprazole for a few yrs for reflux. Been ok.
End of Jan I was given ramipril for BP. I then developed a terrible cough and reflux. Was moved to Losartan but after 2 weeks on that my bp went really low and I was stopped immediately.
I can't seem to shake a dry mouth, lump in throat feeling and reflux with dry cough. Always worse at night, like the ramipril cough.
Has anyone experienced this before? I've been off BP meds for 3 weeks.

Ramapril is famous for causing a cough, it could be a long term symptom or something else. I would recommend asking your GP, just to be sure.
