Abstract
Cough is one of the most common symptoms. Cough not only accompanies the respiratory system diseases, but also occurs in diseases of the cardiovascular system, the digestive system, the upper respiratory tract, etc. This is initiated both by the direct irritation of cough receptors in diseases and stimulation of the cough center. The diagnostic search pattern includes endocrine system diseases, systemic diseases, mediastinal lesions, neurological pathology, etc. Not only laboratory and instrumental examination is important for diagnosis, but also a careful assessment of cough characteristics. The diagnosis of chronic cough and the exclusion of lifethreatening causes demand the most attention. The article presents updated CHEST cough guidelines for diagnostic cough search and management algorithms for establishing the main causes of cough. The main groups of drugs used to relieve cough are considered.
