Since your cough improves with antihistamines, your symptoms are likely due to environmental allergies or post-nasal drip. To treat this effectively, continue taking a daily non-drowsy antihistamine (like Cetirizine or Loratadine) and consider adding a fluticasone nasal spray to reduce nasal inflammation. Using saline nasal rinses can also help clear allergens. Since you have no fever, a bacterial infection is unlikely. Please stay well-hydrated. If your symptoms do not improve within another week, worsen, or if you develop a fever or breathing difficulties, please consult a doctor for a physical examination and targeted prescription.
