Hi, Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
Dry cough is a non productive cough where you don't produce any phlegm. It takes at least a month for it to completely subside. Have Corex Syrup 2 to 3 tsp twice daily. Don't take it when you are using a machine or driving. Also try having a slice of lemon sucked with black pepper and common salt, many times a day.
Take Care.
