Suggest remedy to relieve chronic cough with phlegm
Patient: I have had a chronic cough with phlegm for over a year now.  I barely get any sleep,  and I sometimes cough so hard I throw up.  I have been on nasonex now for 6 weeks and my cough has actually gotten worse.  I have been tested for allergies and have none.   My doctor says it's post nasal drip.  How else can it be treated?
