usually in many persons thhe medicine you took dries the mucus in tracts like nasal respiratory and sinuses
and due to dryness cough starts
you need to use bronchodilator cough syp and mucus dissolving tabs which can clear this
use plenty of fluids
it will cover up in few days after dissolution of mucus
