The Most Effective Chronic Cough Remedies
Lemon

Sucking on a lemon might not be the most pleasant way to get rid of a cough, but it might just do the trick. Lemon is a natural disinfectant with antibacterial properties to kill germs and clear congestion in the throat. It is also an excellent source of vitamin C, which is both soothing and able to fight toxins or irritants in the throat to reduce coughing. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice to eight ounces of water or add to hot tea if needed.
