How Can Chronic Cough And Dry Heaving Be Treated?
I m on clindamycin hcl 300mg for chronic sinus infection, first took amoxicillin with no relief. After 3 and a half days on clynd quickly developed a bronchitis like cough suddenly to the point of dry heaving. Stopped meds or would have probably gone to emergency room. I have had issues with candidiasis and believe i would benefit from nystatin as i took it 30 yrs ago to start my. Recovery from candida. I have had severe bronchitis in march and never totally recovered.. taken prednisone 3 times this year and it helps. To the point of going totally natural and stopping all drugs.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic cough and dry heaving which could be due to side effect of certain medicine, food allergy, giardiasis, poor metabolism of body, lactose intolerance, and food poisoning. I would suggest you to take proper rest and avoid intake of any sharp, spicy and oily food. You should take over the counter anti histamine twice a day like benadryl , take antacid after every meal , take small and frequent meal. You should avoid lying down immediately after having food. I would suggest you to eat light and non spicy , avoid dairy products , avoid food like nuts and sea food and take light walk after every meal . Consult allergy specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order chest x-ray , allergy test . Doctor may prescribe cough syrup , anti histamine along with anti inflammatory .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
