I have a dry, irritating cough. very very irritating!

the only cough medicine in the house if for chesty coughs (no wise-cracks, thank you).

is it worth taking or not?

sara, the best cure is lemon and honey in hot water with a spot of whisky or brandy (for medicinal purposes only of course). Works a treat!!!!

thanks Rosetta.. I think I have honey and definitely have brandy.. a good start!

[Rosetta]

Don't forget the lemon. Seriously, if you sip it it can sooth the irritation, well it does for me anyway..lol

don't take cough medicine for a chesty/ productive cough if you have a dry, irritating cough - get some Pholcodeine Linctus
