Suggest Treatment For Severe Bronchitis

I ve been sick for almost 1 month seen 3 different doctors 1 says I have croup bronchitis others say it s the weather been coughing up phlegm and when I cough it s like my airways close. Tried all sorts of medicines Zithromax biaxin promethazine nothing seems to work, so I bought some jack Daniels do you think that will break up the mucus and stop the cough ?

If its post viral bronchitis then it can be sometimes refractory to normal cough/cold treatments.
Kindly let me know if everything started with runny nose and sore throat i.e. viral infection of the respiratory tract.
If it did then you will have to start some steroid inhalers to get your cough better
