i am the queen of horrifying coughs (once this year it was so bad that my boss asked me if i wanted to go home without losing a sick day - ie she was going to pay me to leave and lie on my couch coughing and mainlining orange juice)
i had a really persistant recurring bad cough this year and the thing that finally kicked it out was Mucinex. You can get the expectorant/suppressant kind so that you cough less and when you do cough it's more productive.
also, when your cough gets like out of control drinking hot water really helps calm it down.
