What is good for very dry cough?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Good for dry cough: Treatment of the cause of the cough is your best option. Head elevation can be very useful to alleviate disruptive night time cough. If you have asthma, COPD or allergies, make sure they are well controlled. Cough medications are at best a temporary, last resort.
