Suggest Treatment Recurring Episodes Of Severe Cough

Almost every year I end up with a cough for a few months. This year it started in the beginning of July with occasional cough. I ended up using the acid reducer therapy hoping it would cure it. During this I got sick. I had the Z-pack, Albuteral, eventually Prednisone. I went to a Pulmonologist she tole me to stop taking Lisinopril, I had started taking in July. It helped, later she told me to use the Nettipot, it helped more. Once again my cough was greatly decreased and now suddenly real bad again. I am doing Nettipot once a day, twice a day is now too much, I am once again doing the acid treatment, just started the 3rd 2 week treatment. I always have cough drops, I was able to use less, now I can t. My throat just seizes up and I have to have a coughing fit several times a day.
