GERD cough

2020-08-31 06:34:22
How would you recommend treating a dry cough caused by GERD (diagnosed medically)? I took some antacids previously for my heartburn, but now I'm always finding myself coughing especially at night when lying down - for the last 7 days. I have no other symptoms. I don't want to take more medication.
