Your symptoms?a dry cough for over 40 days, worsening with talking or eating, and hoarseness?strongly suggest silent reflux (laryngopharyngeal reflux). When acid travels up to irritate the throat, it triggers these exact symptoms. Since RACIFIER D (rabeprazole and domperidone) and Alex lozenges haven't brought relief, I highly recommend consulting an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or a gastroenterologist. They can safely evaluate your throat and customize a treatment plan. Please be reassured that this is a very common and highly treatable condition.
