See a doctor: If your cough is new, Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is good for night time coughing and helps you to sleep. Mucinex dm can be use in am for day time cough. If you have been coughing for more than a week, see your doctor!

Remedies: Hydrate well. Consider using a warm air vaporizer. Mix several teaspoons of honey into herbal tea with a squeeze of lemon juice. Or make tea with 2 tsp of marshmallow root bark per 1cup of hot water (steep in a covered pot for at least 5 minutes). Drink several times a day or as needed to relieve coughing. See a physician if your cough is not resolving, difficulty breathing or temp > 104.
