Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand..

As per your complain excessive coughing can be due to a number of reasons like allergies, bronchitis, throat infection, asthma,acid reflux etc..
The cause can be confirmed only after a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations as per the cause suspected..
As of now you can give me cough suppressants containing Dexamethorphan, phenylephrine and Guaifenesin..
Doing steam inhalations, warm saline gargles and using a humidifier can help..
Suck on throat lozenges and sip on plenty of warm water..
Avoid spicy and chilled foods..
Stay away from the known allergens and prevent exposure to dust..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
