Chronic cough is most commonly due to allery ( HRAD ) . BUT before labelling it we need to investigation to rule out other causes of recurrent cough like chronic sinusitis, tuberculosis, immune deficiency, GERD.out of medicine prescribed by ur doctor montek lc and moxikind CV are for current problem. Kidicare and calcimax are tonics which you can start after few days.Immunace is for improving immunity which can be started after few days.
