Sounds like she might have post nasal drip!.

Suck on Zinc lozenges!. Suck on Cepastat lozenges!. Use cough drops with eucalyptus!.
Vit!. C 2000mg every 2 hours for 2-3 days!.

ask her to try an allergy pill to see how it works!.
I coughed for about 4 months straight and back then I was a poor college student who couldn't afford to go to doctors!.
It turned out I had allergies the whole time which made the tickly throat aka the coughing!. I started taking one regular little bendyrl tablet a day and voila, it stopped!.
Just a suggestion!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When i had my son, he had this consistant cough and my mum kept telling me to go to the doctors with him as its not normal, however 5 mnths passed and she finally coaxed me so i went and got a referral to a Paediatrician, when our visit came round, i was told he had developed asthma!.!.!. so that could be a thought!.
Anyway just thought i would let you in on what my son was diagnosed with a constant cough!.
Good Luck

you need to see you pcp!. coughing for any length of time can cause you to pull your inercostal (rib) muscles and create severe secondary painWww@Answer-Health@Com
If she has a productive cough (coughing up mucus) then mucinex is the way to go to break up the junk and get it out!. Although, mucinex really only works if you are well hydrated so you have to drink plenty of fluids!.
If it is just a dry hacking cough, cough suppressants with dextromethorphan (DM) are available at the pharmacy!. An excellent one, but a little expensive, is Delsym!. It is a solution but the DM is released slowly over 12 hours where others have to be given every 4 to 6 hours!. I often use Delsym at night so that I don't wake up coughing!.
The honey is another easy home remedy that works well and is now the recommended route in children!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
