Elderberry syrup. It's been studied. I have no taken it yet myself but it gets rave reviews.

I can not take over-the-counter cough syrups because they screw me up too much. I also cough too hard and too much right now for cough drops.

Manuka honey. Get well soon. :-)

We use an elderberry elixir made locally, make fresh pineapple juice from the ripest pineapple we can find - or just cut it and eat it if we feel too bad to juice it, drink warm infusions made with thyme/grated ginger root/grated turmeric root/local honey or date syrup to sweeten, if needed, a eucalyptus essential oil/magnesium gel/cold pressed organic coconut oil blend on the chest and throat area then hug the heating pad, in addition to a little roller ball bottle full of a fractionated coconut oil/eucalyptus essential oil blend to roll right under the nose as needed, and we add as much humidity to the air as possible via an old teapot we keep on the stove that continually simmers at a low temp. as we re-fill it all day, keeping the indoor plants watered consistently, hanging wet laundry to dry instead of always using the dryer, holding our head over a pot steaming with whichever herbal/aromatic blend we wish to partake in, and opening the windows every chance we get, especially on rainy days. Wishing you wellness and relief.

My go to is: 1 cup hot water 1 TB lemon juice 1 TB honey and a dash of cayenne powder
Basically anything to keep your throat coated like creamies, pudding, etc. as well, and stay hydrated.
Feel better!

Yay, someone replied to this thread. I couldn't find it. Lot's of good information. I still have the lingering cough so I am thankful for this thread. I am thinking it is the postnasal stuff @Suzetig mentioned.
