chronic coughing all year long

i have been taking a medicine for my high blood pressure and since that medicine I have been having cronic (chronic) coughing. When I spoke with my health care provider they mentione dthat the medication for the blood pressure is causing the coughing and I cannot chnage the medication. Is it accurate that certain blood pressure medication causes cronic (chronic) coughing.

Cough is a possible side effect of a group of medications used to treat high blood pressure called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. Fortunately there are many other medications to treat high blood pressure. You should talk with your doctor about trying one of these.
