This review summarizes the current evidence on the aetiology and the diagnostic difficulties of chronic cough in adults, and provides an algorithmic approach, along with practical tips, for its management by the busy practicing clinician.

Evaluated patients with refractory chronic cough may warrant referral to a pulmonologist or otolaryngologist in addition to a trial of gabapentin, pregabalin, and/or speech therapy.
Airway disorders associated with chronic cough
- Medicine

Most patients with chronic cough can be managed and cured by treatment of these underlying causes of chronic cough, however, in some patients, effective control of cough may require not only controlling underlying diseases but also desensitization of cough pathways.

Airway inflammation as an assessment of chronic nonproductive cough.
- MedicineChest
- 2001
It is suggested that a chronic nonproductive cough as an isolated symptom is associated with airway inflammation due to eosinophil and lymphocyte infiltration and the causes of the chronic non productive cough were eOSinophilic bronchitis, cough-variant asthma, and lymphocytic Bronchitis.

Chronic cough in adults with interstitial lung disease
- MedicineCurrent opinion in pulmonary medicine
- 2005
Clinicians should be cautious when ascribing chronic cough to interstitial lung disease without first completely evaluating for other possible causes of cough, and therapy, when available, should be directed at the specific underlying diagnosis.
Induced sputum inflammatory mediator concentrations in chronic cough.
- Medicine, BiologyAmerican journal of respiratory and critical care medicine

The findings support the view that there is release of inflammatory and tussive mediators in patients with chronic cough and suggest that there might be similarities in the mechanism of cough in a diverse range of conditions.
Airway inflammation in nonasthmatic subjects with chronic cough.
- MedicineAmerican journal of respiratory and critical care medicine
- 1994
The possibility that chronic cough in nonasthmatic subjects is associated with airway inflammation is evaluated, and if this is so, what the relationship between this inflammation and the possible etiology of cough might be, as well as its response to inhaled steroids is evaluated.
A systematic evaluation of mechanisms in chronic cough.

It is concluded that chronic cough is a nonspecific symptom that is associated with several apparently unrelated mechanisms, including UAHR, somatization, BHR, and eosinophilic bronchitis.
Eosinophilic bronchitis is an important cause of chronic cough.

Examination of the available evidence suggests that mechanical stimulation of the pharynx by mucus is not an adequate theory for the production of cough, and eosinophil and mast cell mediation appear a likely mechanism.
