What Medicine Should I Take For Dry Cough That Comes Up During Summer ?
I was on a summer cold for 7-8 days and today (8th day) my throat went a bit dry and started a very low cough. I had the same thing happened to me last year, same month. Last year, I took antibiotics but nothing happened and switched to anti- allergic pills wich did the trick. What should I do now ? (Today is the day that cough started).

Hi,
Thanks for query,
You might have allergic bronchitis.
There may be mixed infection too.
Go for anti histamine tab like cetrizine and as it spreaded to lungs take antibiotic medicines along with anti histamines.
Avoid fried and junk food.
Ok and bye.
