Nut shell, You need symptomatic management for this and meanwhile sorting out the etiology of this recurrent chronic bronchitis.
Central cough suppressants (eg, codeine and dextromethorphan) – Short-term
symptomatic relief of coughing in acute and chronic bronchitis
Short-acting beta-agonists (eg, ipratropium bromide and theophylline) – Control of bronchospasm, dyspnea, and chronic cough in stable patients with chronic
bronchitis; a long-acting beta-agonist plus an inhaled corticosteroid can also be offered to control chronic cough
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) – Treatment of constitutional symptoms of acute bronchitis, including mild-to-moderate pain
Antitussives/expectorants (eg, guaifenesin) – Treatment of cough, dyspnea, and wheezing
Mucolytics – Management of moderate-to-severe COPD, especially in winter
