Suggest Remedy For Persistent Cough

I've had a cough for 4 months. It started out as a chest cold & now it's like a sinus infection. I'm still coughing. First round of antibiotics from Dr. was amoxicillin for 10 days than 10 days of cefuroxime axeti My lungs looked ok according to an x-ray but I did have a bacterial infection. What next?
