Why do I have a persistent dry cough in the morning and feel inactive throughout the day?

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing a persistent dry cough in the morning and feeling inactive throughout the day. These symptoms can be caused by various factors such as allergies, postnasal drip, asthma, or even irritation from environmental factors like smoke or pollution.
A dry cough is typically a tickly cough that does not produce mucus. It can be your body's way of trying to clear irritants from your airways. Feeling inactive or fatigued during the day might be related to poor sleep quality due to coughing or an underlying condition affecting your energy levels.
One medication often used for dry coughs is a combination syrup containing ingredients like diphenhydramine hydrochloride (an antihistamine) and ammonium chloride (an expectorant), which can help reduce cough and allergy symptoms by thinning mucus and blocking allergic reactions. However, such medications should be taken only under a doctor's guidance, as they may cause side effects like drowsiness or dizziness.
