How Can Dry Cough And Throat Irritation Be Treated?

I have a constant dry cough and feel like I have to clear my throat all the time. I have had pulmonary tests that came back negative. What else could it be? I was also told that I have chronic post nasal drip which I take flonase for every day. It has not stopped my cough.
