I tried every natural remedies possible, ACV with honey, ACV gargle, inhalation, eucalyptus etc... and nothing worked. The only thing that did finally work was a deep gargle with Silver Biotics (Colloidal Silver). I did gargle with the solution then laid on the bed with my head on the edge of the bed so that the solution can reach the back of my throat. I kept the solution in my mouth for 6 minutes and then I slowly swallowed the solution. I repeated the treatment 3 times since last night and after 12 hours only, I am already feeling extremely better. I just learned that dry coughs that last are usually caused by bacterias so unless you kill the bacterias, you are going to cough forever. Silver Biotics kills them in just minutes. I pray this will help someone feel better. I use Silver Biotics (the best colloidal silver for me) because of its efficiency. I know it worked for my sinus infections, allergies, rashes, eye infection ect... This is the only silver solution that worked for me and my dogs.

A lot of non productive coughing, wheezing and rattling. At times leaving me short of breath. I was looking for natural treatments for persistant cough and came accross this site. I immediately made a tall glass of AVC and honey with warm water. It tastes good to me so no problem. I didn't really think it was going to work on such a bad cough I was even beginning to wonder if I had developed some bad lung disease but within a few minutes after drinking the mixture the coughing subsided. It's been about two hours and still there's no coughing, no wheezing, no rattle. I'll do it again in the morning and through the day tomorrow. Thank you so much for all the great posts.

I took a dose in the middle of the afternoon and then before I dined. I am happy to report that last night was the first night that I slept most of the night in years. Only woke one time with a minor cough, a shot of water and I was off to sleep again. I am glad I found this site. Thanks Ted. I contionued this regime today and hopefully will sleep well tonight. Had a few coughing spells today but not as bad as before the ACV. I did not have the courage to drop the other meds my doctor has me on. I will eventually drop them if I keep having this level of energy and the reduction in coughing. Thanks Ted for your write up.

But this time nothing worked for my 6 year old son. He coughed to the point that I thought he was going to blow a lung and he even threw up a couple of times cough was so bad. I tried honey, cough drops, cool mist vaporizor, vicks on chest soles of feet, every over the counter cough syrup . NOTHING and I mean nothing would work. THIS PART IS IMPORTANT!!! Medical doctors no longer prescribe cough meds for children and the over the counter ones was worthless. I have got about six different kinds in my cabinet. My child was coughing to the point of being blue in the face. After talking to doc to no avail and every pharmacy in town to know avail. I took to the internet and found since NO PRESCIPTION FOR COUGH was availiable anymore. That children need breathing treatments and steroids. Now check this out! Yea, I do all the work and research to get my child help. Then I have to take him back to med doc and tell him what I researced and pay him $50.00 for a visit and get prescription written. My son not even 24 hours on breathing treatment and steroids is a lot better already. At least 40% better. Seems INFLAMMATION is the root of all of this coughing mess. And breathing treatment soothes the bronchial tubes and steroids reduce swelling to allow mucus ( Post nasal drip ) not to be as irritating to the throat. Now I looked high and low on here and every other natural remedy website and could not find a cure for this chronic cough. I LOVE EARTHCLINIC and have used many of these remedies with sucess. But there was not much info on here about SWELLING and INFLAMMATION. I myself had to be put on steroids and antibotics because of ear infection. SWELLING/ INFLAMED. I can cure myself with garlic most of the time and get rid of congestion and fever and what not. But inflammation and the clear fluids that will not go away or drain properly, I need help with. People with knowledge about this please inform me on this subject. I just could not take seeing my son in that condition.

Three nights ago I slathered Vicks on the soles of my feet, covered them with socks and went straight to bed. I also elevated my head with a second pillow. Worked brilliantly. I've done it every night since - it lasts around 6-8 hours for me. Last night I removed the pillow as it gave me a headache - same great results!

I couldn't sleep at night as the cough kept me awake. I am coughing almost the whole day with maybe around half an hour break in between or less. It's like almost non-stop coughing. I cough till my stomach muscles ache. I was desparate for relief and tried many remedies including those mentioned in Earthclinc like cayenne pepper, putting menthol rub on my soles, etc but all these yield only temporary relief. Yesterday night, I prayed for help in desperation and I suddenly thought of the apple cider vinegar mentioned in Earthclinic. I took 2 teaspoons mixed with water and went to bed and I did not even cough once in the night. I slept through the night soundly! There was still some coughing when I woke up this morning but I am at least 50% better. Thank you, Earthclinic and to the readers who contributed to their experiences!

I started a detox program two months ago and since then I have had a persistent dry cough that is driving me and everyone around me nuts.

I got a chest X-ray and my lungs checked and they are normal and clear. I don't want this to go on indefinitely. I take ACV every day and it's not helping. Any other ideas on how I can stop it?

After the first week, my sinuses closed up completely, I tried sea salt irrigation and organic unfiltered ACV and nothing seemed to work. I finally went to the doctor and was prescribed azithromycin for a sinus infection. While I hate antibiotics and try to never take them, I was desperate and needed to go back to work so gave them a try. Since finishing the antibiotics, I have had a horrible cough I can't get rid of as well as low grade fever and aches and pains. Every night, I wake up in the middle of the night for 1-2 hours in order to cough up white mucus. When I get home and try to nap, I sleep for ~45 minutes before waking up with a cough again. I also cough intermittently during the day, but not as badly. When I have a coughing fit, I start wheezing and feel as if I can't breathe. It started as allergies but now is so much worse. If you can give me any advice, it would mean the world to me.

Cut ginger into McDonald french fry sized pieces about 1&1/2 inch long & squeeze bead of honey onto same. The honey kills harsh ginger taste & ginger keeps honey from being 2 sweet.

I found out about 4 yrs ago that it was acid reflux causing the cough. I was put on omeprazole 20 mg two caps a day. This did not stop the cough, I asked if it was my blood pressure meds I was taking HCTZ 12. 5 mg/Lisinopril 20mg and was adv. It was not. They did not try changing the b/p meds just said no. They uped the omeprazole to 4 caps a day instead. The cough did not go away. But in the mean time I suffered a back injury which I take hydrocodone 7.5 mg for. Funny thing happened, the cough went away. When I stop taking the hydrocodone it comes back. They don't pay any attention to that though. I don't want to take hydrocodone all the time. What can I do? I am on a limited income and have to go to the veterans hospital to see a doctor, no other option." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/coughs.html&name=VITA_51263 /CURES/coughs6.rss20 Tue, 18 Jan 11 17:02:49 -0600 [YEA] John H from Croxley Green, Hertfordshire, Uk writes: "For years I had a cough without apparent reason (no infection). I then noticed if I ate liver the cough completely disappeared within 24 hours. Further investigation showed that I just has a Vitamin A deficiency and the problem was resolved eating liver once a week or taking a Vitamin A supplement. I have found that Vitamin A retinol works much better the carrots (carotin) but be aware not to have too much retinol. I have tested this by stopping the Vitamin A and the cough returns.

I am a dental hygienist, so I can usually get a doc to write me a script for an anti-biotic. I tried a couple different types of them to try and get rid of the rest of whatever was still living in my bronchial passages causing my nagging cough. In conjunction I went on a ACV stint for about a week. Nothing rid me of the cough. Yesterday I decided to try the GSE approach again. About 7-8 drops in some juice, 2x yesterday. The juice does little to hide the bitterness; you just need to endure it and drink it down. Today I feel the best I have felt in weeks."
