Reflux cough is mainly characterized by acid-suppressing, mucosal-protecting, and gastrointestinal-promoting drugs, which commonly include omeprazole as well as pantoprazole, rabeprazole, morpholine, and itopride. In addition, attention should be paid to the patient’s habits and lifestyle education, such as avoiding bed rest after meals, and appropriate post-meal exercise should be performed. The head of the bed should be elevated during nighttime sleep to reduce the occurrence of irritating cough symptoms caused by gastroesophageal reflux, and attention should be paid to avoid eating excessively spicy, stimulating, and oily foods to avoid aggravation of symptoms.
