Go back to MD: There are reasons for cough in people with asthma such as allergies, cold and postnasal drip which may be what you have, that is coughing more when you lay down. On the other hand uncontrolled asthma can cause cough, wheezing and sob. Bo back to your doctor for reevaluation as you may need other medicines and systemic steroid if needed.
