Do acid loving plants require acidic fertilizer

Hi I have a plant that requires a ph of 4.5. The soil is currently at this ph level. Should I add regular fertilizer or add acidic fertilizer? Will either the regular or the acidic fertilizer change the ph of soil?
Thank you

I use acidic fertilizers for acid-loving plants, such as rhodies and azaleas, that I have in the ground outdoors. I do for my miniature roses, too, which are in containers. [img]https://bestsmileys.com/clueless/4.gif[/img]
