I am having dry cough since 3-4 days. I had been taking steam once a day which allows me to release some phlegm, but it only gives temporary relief. Today I tried dabur honitus cough syrup but not sure if its working. Do I need to try some medicinal cough syrup like grilinctus or would you recommend something else? Thank you.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user plain steam inhalation and breathing humidified air helps significantly and can be done more frequently in a day to provide some symptom relief. Generally most cough syrups are as good as another. Honey 2-3 ml as and when needed can also be equally helpful. Best consult a doctor to get a proper evaluation of your symptoms and start an appropriate treatment. Best wishes.
