A member asked:
I've had a dry chronic cough for 6 months, i have a low level i allergy to grass mix 2 of 0.38 ku/l, which i don't think would create a chronic cough. budesonide inhaler works for abt 2 days, then cough returns. any help?

Six months of a chronic cough sounds like uncontrolled asthma. Cough variant asthma is one of the milder expressions of the affliction that may never produce obvious wheezing. Please review your pattern with your doc. Daily budesonide is one of the primary treatments used to prevent/control symptoms.
