The homeopathic remedies below are just some of the remedies used to treat Coughs. Cough is defined as a sudden noisy expulsion of air from lungs. Some different types of coughs are: Dry cough - cough without expectoration, Hacking cough - a cough that is short, frequent, shallow and feeble, Productive cough - a cough that produces expectoration. Do not suppress this cough with cough medicine. This is the body's way of expelling mucus. The homeopathic medicines listed below do not suppress the cough; rather they aid the body in ridding itself of the underlying cause of the cough.
