I have been continuosly coughing and medicine is also not working.what should i do to recover from it?

Continuous coughing: It would be of interest to know how long you have been coughing and what medicine you have been taking. Prolonged and continuous coughing brings to mind pertussis or whooping cough. See your doctor to rule out other things as well, such as asthma, bronchitis or pneumonia.
