Can't stop coughing?
Avoid
heavy duty cough suppressants, which inhibit your body's ability to cough and clean the
lungs. Instead, look for over-the-counter expectorants that contain the active ingredient
guai-fenesin, a chemical that liquefies the crud in your lungs and makes it easier to
cough up.
To make your coughs more productive, drink lots of water. You
can also try adding hot peppers, curry and other spices to your food.
Anything that makes your eyes water will also help thin your
mucus.
