A member asked:
M indian.if expectorant oral cough syrup can't stop my coughing even after a week, try some other cough syrups or may be some infection inside stomach?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antitussive: If you are using dextromethorphan containing syrup and that does not work, try some with Codeine in it. If you are in india, would worry about tuberculosis. The issue is why you are coughing. This could be an atypical pneumonia including mycoplasma, chlamydia, legionella, adult perussis, and so on.
