I have had a dry cough for 2 weeks, what should I do?

If you have been experiencing a dry cough for two weeks and have also developed nasal congestion recently, it may be helpful to try an antihistamine like Aerius or Claritin. These medications may be more effective than Benadryl in relieving your symptoms. It is recommended to use them for at least 5 to 7 days to determine their effectiveness. Additionally, if Advil Cold & Sinus and codeine have not been helping, it would be a good idea to stop using them. It's always a good idea to consult with a pharmacist or healthcare professional for personalized advice on managing your symptoms.
