I had a thread about this the other day. I have had a cough on and off all bloody winter. Now on antibiotics as nothing seems to get rid of it. But it is a virus, so antibiotics not the answer. I am coughing off green phlegm which indicates an infection somewhere which is why I think I was given antibiotics.
