Dear Bob Liebert,

I have had a very deep cough for 3 months now. They are treating it with asthma medicines ( I take singulair, two inhalers: advair and Max-air). None of these seem to be helping. I am going to be tested for allergies again (4th time in 5 years all negative). I have had a chest x-ray which was also negative. I am tired of the coughing, the medicines and the testing that doesn't produce any results. Any suggestions on what I can try?

Mary

Dear Friend,

I would suggest using our Wild Cherry Bark Extract. I have used it successfully in chronic cough; controls the cough while having a tonic effect on the lungs. Pleurisy Root is also good for dry, irritating cough with asthma symptoms.

You can buy these herbs and many more in the Formula and Single Herb sections of the Teeter Creek Herb website. Herbs that don't appear in the Formula or Single Herb lists can usually be requested in the "Message" section at the bottom of the order page.
