Cough since a couple of weeks

Question

Asked for Male, 28 Years

I've been nursing a cough for a while now. Was taking Himalaya septilin tablets and that seemed to control it, but when the problem was not going I started taking moxikind CV 625. Finished the dosage of 5 days and felt better, but a little cough has come back now with irritation in he throat. What medicine should I take and what dosage?
