1 THE MANAGEMENT OF COUGH Dr. Lo Iek Long Department of Respiratory Medicine, CHCSJ 1 Apr 2012
2 Cough
3 Complications of cough Insomnia Lower ribs fracture Prolapsed uterine Hernia Urinary incontinence
4 Classification of cough Acute < 3 weeks Sub-acute 3-8 weeks Chronic > 8 weeks
5 ACUTE COUGH < 3 weeks
6 Acute cough Common cold Severe illness Pneumonia (chest pain, SOB) CHF (SOB, pedal edema; rales heard) Pulmonary embolism (hemoptysis, chest pain, SOB) Exacerbation of chronic illness Smoking COPD Atopy Asthma Recurrent lung infection (childhood) Bronchiectasis
7 Our management for common cold Symptoms Runny nose / sneezing medication Antihistamine (1 st, 2 nd, 3 rd generation) Stuffy nose Decongestant (pseudoephedrine, 偽麻黃 ): Telfast D / Clarinase Cough Sore throat Fever Anti-tussive (dry cough) Expectorant (productive) Tantum verde, Serratiopeptidase ( 蛋白質分解酵素 ) Paracetamol
8 Antihistamine ( 抗敏感藥 ) Sedating Non-sedating Generation 1 st 2 nd 3 rd Medication Diphenhydramine (Benylin) Fexofenadine (Telfast) Cetirizine (Zyrtec) Hydroxyzine Loratadine Desloratadine (Atarax) (Claritin) (Aerius) Ketotifen Remarks Anti-cholinergic effect Comes with Pseudoephedrine Once daily
9 Non-sedating antihistamine for common cold? Non-sedating antihistamine has not been proven to be effective! De Sutter AIM, et al. Antihistamines for the common cold (archive). accessed 23/03/121
10 Although antihistamines are commonly prescribed for the common cold, there is little evidence as to whether these drugs are effective. Antihistamines do not alleviate nasal congestion, rhinorrhea and sneezing, or subjective improvement of the common cold. Combinations of antihistamine with decongestant show a beneficial effect on general recovery as well as on nasal symptoms (but not cough). First-generation antihistamine is better for cough. Published Online: 8 JUL 2009
11 OTC medication
12 Composition of the OTC Medication Day Night Antipyretic( 退燒 ) Anti-tussive( 止咳 ) Expectorant( 化痰 ) Decongestant( 通鼻塞 ) Paracetamol 300mg Carbetapentane 15mg Bromhexine 4mg Phenylephrine 10mg Other Caffeine 30mg Chlorpheniramine 4mg
13 Common cold summary Newer generation antihistamines alone should not be prescribed for patients with common cold. A combination of antihistamine and decongestant (e.g. Telfast D and Clarinase) may alleviate nasal symptoms, but not cough. If cough is the major symptom, first-generation antihistamine (e.g. Atarax, Benylin) or anti-tussive /expectorant should be used.
14 Anti-tussive ( 止咳 ) & expectorant ( 化痰 ) Anti-tussive Expectorant indication Dry cough Productive cough Common medications Dextromethorphan with Gauifenesin (Robitussin) Codeine Bromhexine Ambroxol Carbocysteine Acetylcysteine
15 SUBACUTE COUGH 3-8 weeks
16 Post-infectious (viral) cough 1. URTI symptoms Antihistamine + decongestant x 1 week 2. Sinusitis? Antibiotics (Cefuroxime or Azithromycin) x 1 week 3. Allergy? Inhaled steroid + bronchodilator x 4 weeks, or Leukotriene antgonist (Montelukast) x 4 weeks
17 CHRONIC COUGH > 8 weeks
18 Guidelines on chronic cough American College of Chest Physician (ACCP) 1998, 2006 European Respiratory Society (ERS) 2004 British Thoracic Society (BTS) 2006 Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) 2006 Chinese Society of Respiratory Disease (CSRD) 2005
19 Rule out serious causes Red flag: hemoptysis, chest pain, breathlessness Suspicion of lung cancer Suspicion of tuberculosis Suspicion of inhaled foreign body
20 First things to do Smoking status Medication review: Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) Cough should improve or resolve within 4 weeks Chest radiograph Lung mass Cardiomegaly with lung congestion Bronchiectasis / Tb sequela / ILD

40 Special consideration in children Respiratory tract infections, asthma, and gastroesophageal reflux disease are the most common causes of chronic cough in children. Foreign body aspiration should be considered in young children. Congenital conditions, cystic fibrosis, and immune disorders are possible diagnoses in children with chronic cough and recurrent infection. Am Fam Physician 2004;69: ,2169
