Home remedy:
After a gargle with warm salt water, take few drops of ground basil leaf with some juice of ginger mixed in a spoon of honey. You will be relieved of an irritating cough for the night. Or else take some powdered white pepper in a spoon of honey to calm down your throat.
Cough medicines:
Cough preparations available over the counter can help significantly. Try one with guaifenesin as the main active ingredient to loosen and help expectorate mucus and phlegm. Ask your pharmacist for product recommendations that will be most effective for your individual symptoms and type of cough.
Coughing at night can have several causes including:
A simple allergy test can rule out allergies.
A doctor can see post-nasal drip and phlegm in the throat.
Humidity can help with dry throat.
Reflux can be treated with meds like Prilosec, Zantac, or others.

You cannot cure a dry cold cough with over the counter medicine well because they do not have opiates in them. The DXM is part of morphine but it lacks the components to silence a painful dry cough, it dose make it not as bad. But in a bad case of a cold cough sometimes its best to go to the doctor and get some prescription cough medicine if its keeping you from resting. The less rest you get the longer it will take the body to fight off the virus.
* When someone has a bad cough then human nature takes over and brain sends the message to cough no matter where you are. The only thing you can do is apologize and say something like 'I've got a terrible cold and apologize for this nagging cough.' There are cough drops that you can get or cough syrups that will help remedy the problem.
