What is a really appropriate store-bought tablets or home remedy to minister to relieve or cure a cough?

I have had a really bad cold for in the region of a week now and now the cough is at it's worse. It's one of those deep, loud, "horse" coughs. If I grasp the tiniest tickle or irritation in my throat, I am forced to cough very obnoxiously. Sometimes I'll cough so hard I'll lose my breath, gag, or my eyes will hose down. Not to mention my ribs and stomach muscles are unbelievablably sore now. This is no wimpy cough! I am NOT coughing up anything though. I think it is a dry cough. A few days ago, there might of be some mucus in my throat and chest but I don't think there is as much anymore. It feel more dry than anything. I have tried everything to calm my cough/chest but nothing have worked. I have been forced to stay up the past 2 night, practically coughing myself to death all night! I want sleep! Please someone oblige the irritation in my throat go away so I'll quit coughing! I need a miracle.
Answers:     Honey and lemon always works for me.
apple cider vinegar...drink a tbsp full.
OR my m-i-l from jamaica gave me this one, just a tbsp of honey mixed near 1 tbsp of a fresh lime juice,non of that bottled crap....a real lime.... mix and swollow
ive be told ginger tea(look up how to make it)is supposed to help but it isnt pleasent tasting.menthol help with the cough and congestion.or sit in the bathroom with the shower as hot as possible so you breathe within the steam.that helps too.
