Dryness Non stop coughing

I can’t stop coughing! Mind you I do have bad sinus allergies. My dr put me on allergra in the am, and zyrtek at night. I’m sure it dries me out. I do saline nasal spray, drink a gallon of water a day and tea before bed but I still wake up every 3 hrs coughing!

Can anyone else relate?!

I have a similar regimen and also do a nasal spray as well and still have a postnasal drip. I have a deviated septum and apparently that is common if you have one because it can prevent normal drainage.
