What Causes Dry Coughing After Having Drug-eluting Stents?

My husband had a drug eluting stent about 4 mths ago. Since then, he has developed an irritating dry cough that won t go away. He has had his medication changed three times and still the cough persists. Why is he coughing so much and is it the medication causing it?
