welcome tohealyhcaremagic

start using masks to curtail allergens entering your body

you will have to avoid dusty environment

increase your immunity by regular exercise and high protien healthy diets

you can try allagra 180 this medicine does not cause drwsiness as it claims

once daily being the dose
it will be better to consult physician and get physical check up and investigations to reach a proper diagnosis and start proper treatment

General & Family Physician Dr. Mohammed Tauseef's  Response
Hi, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
You are suffering from Allergic Cough. The cause can be allergies or Asthma. Kindly get yourself examined by a Physician to rule out the exact cause. You may need higher doses of anti allergic medications, nebulizations or Steroid preparations and antibiotics if there is a infection. If you have a dry, tickling, irritating cough, try cough drops or hard candy. Drink plenty of fluids as this will break down the mucus and makes it easier to cough it up. You can take steam inhalations which increases the moisture in the air and can help soothe your dry throat.
Wish you Good Health.
