Can lisinopril and recent taking of amlodipine for blood pressure create a new side effect of chronic dry cough? it's just started overnite, help

Chronic cough: Yes the drugs can cause a dry, sometime hacking cough. Ask you doctor about swiching blood pressure medication to a thiazide diuretic which does not cause cough.
