I have had a cough for 6 months. It sometimes becomes severe but improves temporarily when I take Corex DX Syrup. What could be the cause, and what should I do?

Asked by Female, 36 · 6 days ago

A cough lasting 6 months is considered chronic and may be due to conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, acid reflux, post-nasal drip, or, less commonly, infections such as tuberculosis. While your current syrup provides temporary relief by suppressing coughs and reducing allergic reactions, it only masks symptoms rather than treating the underlying cause. You should consult a doctor for a proper evaluation, which may include a chest X-ray and lung function tests, to determine the cause, start appropriate treatment, and prevent any complications.
