Make certain you are not taking ACE (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme) or ARB (Angiotensin Receptor Blocker) meds. If you are, you may have an ACEARB cough.

I assume the itch is in your throat or larynx. Drink plenty of water& suck on lozenges to keep throat moistened. If the cough is dry,nonproductive& not doing you any good, take a cough suppressive syrup like robitussinDM or get a stronger prescription strength syrup with codeine from your physician. Since you're not experiencing wheezing, I don't think you require corticosteroid use.
