Ok, sorry I called the pharmacy he was taking cephalexin also known as keflex. would that antibiotic cause the NP?

Changing the blood pressure med would be up to the doctor.
Some people are allergic to ACE inhibitors, and most doctors will change it for that reason.

I answered your Cipro question on the other thread and gave a link.
Here is the wiki link for it...listing all the potential problems it can cause:

Cymbalta can affect the liver negatively. I would change to something else.

I can't say about the staph infection.
