What Causes Persistent Dry Cough Along With Itchy Throat?

Hi for the past 3 months I ve had this constant cough, no cold systems, just a dry cough. Sometimes it feel likes I have a lot of Flem or something in my chest cavity. I feel like my throat is always itching and dry. Sometimes when I eat I start coughing. I keep cough drops handing and I take Vitamin C (about 2000) sometimes during the day I take DayQuil. Any suggestions as to what this could be?
