Brief Answer: Self medication is hazardous. Detailed Answer: Hello, I reviewed your symptoms. This cough may be a post viral cough or due to infection descending into your chest. Since you haven't consulted a doctor, it is not right to advice further management. I generally use doxycycline if infection is descending into the chest. But if it is post viral cough, it can be managed with cough suppressant drugs. Therefore at this point of time, it is important to identify the cause. Do not self medicate without establishing the cause. Instead of using self medicated drugs, I recommend that you start steam inhalation 3-4 times a day and can take syrup benadryl 2 teaspoon twice a day for the cough. Visit a doctor... take care!
