Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Home remedies for a lingering cough

Anyone have any good ones? My sil fixed me up the other day with a small jar of 1-1 white lightning to honey. About a teaspoon at night does the trick almost instantly. Problem is to he man who made the white lightning has past away and we don't have any contacts for any more.
If another alcohol might work what would it be. Is it just the higher octane than is effective?
Any help appreciate. I've had a cough for a year and a half. CT scan is normal.

Warm or hot salt water gargle.

MAGA!

Maybe try some Everclear when the white lightning runs out.

Plug up the drain in you shower with a washcloth. Turn on the shower with lots of hot water. Then breath the steam.

As a kid i remember my grandpaw mixing up soft peppermint sticks, bourbon, honey and i think lemon in a pint jar, it worked.

Whiskey, honey and lemon juice in a tablespoon, heat up over flame for few seconds, works

Diluted iodine gargle and nose swab.

Whiskey, honey, and lemon juice

Frangelico and Scotch. 50/50. Neat. Sip it and breath the vapors.

You in an ACE inhibitor for high BP?

Get a cough syrup that has guaifenesin in it. It’s a cough suppressant.

1 cup OJ
2-3 Tablespoons finely grated ginger
1-2 teaspoons honey
Good shake of cinnamon
1-2 shots of hooch, if desired

Heat in a saucepan, strain the ginger if you must, then sip it & feel the magic. Cleans chest & sinus, soothes throat, quiets cough.

Make a big batch, and put remainder in a thermos to keep on the nightstand. It can come in handy if you wake in the night.

Eat a lot of raw onions

And just enough water to dissolve it. Hot.

If it’s thick ass mucus try breo inhaler along with albuterol treatment
Used as directed should clear you up in a couple days .
May not be what you wanted to hear , but it works.

That’s the expectorant.

Deyextromethorphan is the cough suppressant I believe.

The codeine cough syrup is hands down the best. It holy Fück they hate to prescribe that now.

I had bilateral pulmonary emboli, blood clots, and effective cough suppressant was denied. Bout killed myself coughing and begged for codeine or hydrocodone. But i know it was best. Everybody looking out for my health. Can’t have sick patients getting addicted to cough syrup.

They’re saving us for the fentanyl.

Pretty sure

Actually yes I'm on 10mg of Lisinopril that I started back in early December. That could line up with when the cough got worse.
You might be onto something 🙂

I thank all of you men for all the great recipes.👍

Yeah that codeine syrup is addictive and isn't prescribed very often.
