It seems unlikely. Hair loss is generally genetically transmitted.
Yes
Dry hair is not a proven side effect of blood pressure medications. However, hair loss has been reported with some blood pressure medications.
Side effects are results of taking a medication that are not the reason you are taking the drug. For example, Rogaine (monoxidil) was originally investigated as a blood pressure medication that was found to cause hair growth. For people taking it for blood pressure, the hair growth would be an (unwanted) side effect. For people taking it to grow hair, a drop in blood pressure (possibly causing dizziness) would be a side effect. Toxic effects are any outcomes of taking a medication that are harmful to the body. Generally, they result from taking a medication at doses above the recommended level. Drug allergy is a hypersensitivity of a particular individual person to a drug that causes an allergic reaction, typically a rash or swelling, when the drug is taken. Penicillin is one of the most common causes of drug allergy. Idiosyncrasy (from Wiktionary) is a peculiar individual reaction to a substance that is harmless to most people.

If you're a moderate to heavy drinker and drink fairly regularly, you probably have somewhat elevated blood pressure, which could contribute to hair loss in men and women. Alcohol will also deplete various vitamins required for healthy hair growth.

One of the most popular forms of hair restoration is the use of Minoxidil. This formula can be found in various over the counter and prescription hair restoration treatments and medicines. Originally used to regulate blood pressure, Minoxidil actually tends to grow hair wherever it is placed. If using this substance for hair restoration, be careful when applying the scalp medication, as poorly applied minoxidil can result in an uneven and false looking hairline.
Hair loss is actually caused by the medicine, genetics, other factors, or a combination of these things. Many drugs can cause hair loss, though there many be a delay between taking the medication and the actual hair loss, so any medication is being taken it is important to consult a doctor to identify if this could be a side effect of the drug being taken. And it was reported in less than 1 percent of people who took the medicine.
