Non-Pharmacological Treatments & Advice To Reduce Cough Severity

  • Stay hydrated: Drink lots of water to thin mucus.
  • Inhale steam: Take a hot shower, or boil water and pour it into a bowl, face the bowl (stay at least 1 foot away), place a towel over the back of your head to form a tent, and inhale.
  • Use a humidifier, for example, Vicks Air Humidifier, to loosen mucus
  • Have a little honey before bed. Studies show that sweet stuff can help ease a cough. Don’t give honey to children under 12 months. Manuka Honey is a powerful weapon in fighting coughs and sore throats
  • Avoid inhaled irritants such as dust, perfumes, or pollutants. Wear face mask to reduce the exposure to the allergen
