Brief Answer:
You need antihistamine drug.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Secretions in trachea are mostly due to either infection or irritation or allergy.
So do warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Avoid pollution, dust, chemical exposure etc.
Quit smoking if you are a smoker.
Antihistamine drugs like levocetrizine, chlorpheniramime, fexofenadine etc are useful for trecheal secretions.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
