I hope that this question isn't too general. is the treatment for pulmonary hypertension always the same as the usual treatment for cardiac failure? please elaborate if possible.

It is too general: The treatment is nearly totally different and too complex to be discussed in this forum. You need to ask your doctor to explain the differences.

No.: Pulmonary hypertension requires specific medicines. Heart failure completely different medicines, though significant pulmonary hypertension can cause right sided heart failure that requires heart failure medications.
