Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Not sure if it'll help you. But, when I get one of those types of coughs, I suck on a starlight mint. They're the ones you see around Christmas time. They're white with the red around the outside. For some reason, the mint seems to help. Hope it helps!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Sometimes the dry cough is because of mucus that you just can't get out. If mints or cough drops don't help try Mucinex or Robitussin. They help to thin mucus making it easier to cough it out of your system. You should still call your doctor to get his/her opinion. With PF it's not good to take chances. 33 FL IPF dx 1/06 > > Hi all I had a sinus cool two weeks ago and now I have this dry cough that just don't want stop.
