I was diagnoed with high blood pressure about 15 years ago, I was put on Perindopril 2mgs. Then after a few years it was increased to 4 mgs and then a couple of years ago inc to 8mgs. Last week my doctor decided to change me onto Ramipril. Is it normal to feel anxious on Ramipril? Also it has not recuced my blood pressure

I was originally on ramipril but it gave me a dry throat / cough. No other side effects though.
