Recently I have been coming across a no. Of Pts. with persistent dry irritating cough which usually follow an episode of upper respiratory tract infections.

After a course of antibiotics and antihistamines and analgesic  fever and other  ailments subside but dry irritating  cough persists for about couple  of weeks. Will you please suggest  any cure for this menace. I like to add that I am practising in B'lore which is a highly polluted city with a  temperature variations of 10 to 12 degrees in 24hrs.
