Question by : my husband has sleep apnea, but has had this hacking wet and dry cough for almost a year and nothing cures it?
My husband is only 30 years old and he has sleep apnea, he has had this hacking dry and wet cough for almost a year now, he has been to urgent care, take care clinic and now seeing an actual family dr and an allergist, cough meds, asthma and other inhalers and pills and syrups don;t work, netti pot, and others don’t work, and its even worse at bedtime or when he first awakes, it happens with or without the cpap machine, anyone have any ideas? or maybe could it be the cpap machine? I’m 37 weeks pregnant and Its next to impossible to get a little sleep before the baby comes, I’m a nervous wreck

Is he by any chance taking high blood pressure pills? They can cause a cough like this, we had this happen in our family. Specifically it was Lisinopril, other brand names Prinivil and Zestril.
