Taking into account the above information, I encourage you to contact your attending physician immediately. Only a specialist, knowing your full medical history and test results, can decide on a possible modification of the treatment.
You should not discontinue any of the prescribed medications on your own without consulting a doctor, as this can lead to serious health consequences. We wrote more about it here:

The symptoms described may indicate the need to adjust doses or change medications, which should be carried out under the supervision of a specialist. Shortness of breath and dizziness can be side effects of antihypertensive drugs, especially at the beginning of therapy or after a change in dosage. Bisocard (bisoprolol) belongs to the group of beta-blockers and is used in the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. It can cause shortness of breath, especially in people with a predisposition to respiratory diseases.

Axtil (probably cilazapril) is an ACE inhibitor that is also used to treat high blood pressure. Combining the two drugs is a practice used in some cases, but requires close monitoring.
