Suggest Treatment For Severe Coughing And Spitting Of Mucus

I've had a couch for wekks now, maybe a month, but tonight it is really bad. I've been coughing for an hour or so and cough drops or medicine has not helped. I've been couching so much I'm gagging and sometimes spit up muchus, and drinking anything makes me gag. What can I do?
