Brief Answer:
Consider a physical examination.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Persistent itchy and scratchy throat are due to multiple causes. A chronic / persistent inflammation, associated sinusitis / post nasal drip, associated acid reflux and others. A physical examination is mandatory to identify the cause.

You can continue to take Montec LC. In addition I will also suggest steam inhalations and a physical consultation with ENT doctor.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
