Answer

You didn't explain why you were coughing. If you have a cold or a type of flu there are many products on the market that will help relieve the coughing so ask your pharmacist which product is the best and if you are on any medications please tell the pharmacist because your medications could interact with a product he gives you.

Believe it or not, this works! I heard that rubbing the soles of your feet and tops of your feet with Vicks Vapo Rub, putting on socks and going to bed stopped the coughing. I didn't believe it until I tried it tonight on my husband who coughs more at night from his cold (common) and he hasn't coughed once through the night and others swear by this method as well.

If you are congested due to a cold or flu then DON'T sleep laying down! Prop a couple of pillows up and lean back and you'll have less coughing because your sinus' won't drain down the back of your throat so badly and you will find you can breath better. Vaporizors with Buckleys or Vicks Vapo Rub on the lip of it (close your bedroom door) will also help loosen up phlegm in the lungs and chest area and clear sinus'.

If this cough continues for more than 3 - 4 days it's time to see your doctor. Pneumonia and Bronchitis are on the prowl once again or you may have an infection and may need antibiotics.

If you are looking for home remedies, you could try grating a spoonful of ginger. Add some honey to it and take it slowly like as if it is melting in your mouth. This soothes your throat.
