Cough remedies

Get your ass to a Dr ASAP

I did. She's the one who gave me the prescription cough medicine I mentioned. She said my lungs are clear and I just have a "common cold; a really bad one, but just a common cold."

I think I turned the corner last night. I'm feeling a little better this morning.

I'm glad you are feeling better and are one your way back to a happy day.

That's good, sore/stiff neck symptoms are not to be fooled around with...

To answer the ops question: For me Hot Tea with Cinnamon and Honey, does the trick.

DayQuil Severe Do Not Exceed Recommend Dosage!

For the kids we've had good luck with plain old honey. Also, pineapple juice works too.

Here's a receipt, folks might want to try.

Ingredients

• One medium organic navel orange, cut into one to two-inch pieces (do not peel)
• One organic lemon, cut into one-inch pieces (do not peel)
• Two-inch piece of fresh ginger, chopped
• Two teaspoons mixed peppercorns
• One cinnamon stick
• Two tablespoons water
• Two tablespoons extra-virgin coconut oil
• One cup raw honey

Directions

1. In a saucepan, combine orange and lemon pieces, ginger, peppercorns, cinnamon stick and water. Heat over medium heat while mashing the ingredients with a wooden spoon to release the juices. Lightly crush the cinnamon stick and peppercorns.
2. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 5 to 8 minutes or until fragrant.
3. When fragrant, stir in the coconut oil and raw honey until the coconut oil is melted. Remove from the heat and allow to steep for 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth and pour into a clean jar with a lid.
5. To use, take one or two tablespoons as needed until the symptoms disappear.

It does not say how long it will keep.

Neti pot. Clear out the nose, sinuses, and post nasal drip and it helps the throat irritation.

OTC guaifenesin dosages do little to nothing. "Prescription strength" Mucinex is the same stuff, just a higher dosage. Take three times what the OTC bottle says. Just don't do that with the "D" versions, as taking that much cough suppressant is really bad for you.

Gargling with mouthwash helps me with the discomfort of the sore throat. Make sure it gets all the way to the back as you gargle. You know it's working when it burns. I think those type remedies are very user specific, however... Tea with honey and a "warming" liquor helps most folks.

I don't know of anything that cures a cough, but Delsym cough medicine works the best on me for reducing it some. Along with cough drops.

Narcotics suppress cough. I'm not anything else does.
