Hi There I understand your concern and would like to tell you that as you High Blood pressure for a couple of years, you should take the medication (April 5 as advised) along with lifestyle modification for better hypertension control. April is very good medicine as it reduces risk of myocardial Infarction, stroke and death rate because of cardiovascular diseases. Cough and hypotension can be the only side effect of April if it happens then you can ask your treating doctor for alternative. I wish you Good Health
