One natural home-brewed cough medicine that helps dissolve micus in the throat: mix 1 teaspoon honey and 1 teaspoon lemon juice in a glass of warm water. Put a dab of honey on the back of the tongue to bring relief from a nagging cough. Organic herbal peppermint tea also.

Sometimes drinking water will help. Also, a piece of hard candy soothes the throat and takes away the tickling sensation that precedes a cough. Old home remedies include hot tea and lemon or lemon and honey mixed and given by the teaspoon. Sometimes these work and sometimes they don't. It depends on what is causing the cough.
