Chronic cough is an often-misunderstood condition that places a significant quality of life burden on patients and their loved ones. For providers, this complex condition requires more than just symptom management—it calls for expert, patient-centered evaluation. In this podcast, Dr. Rachel Taliercio and Dr. Michael Ghobrial discuss how early referral to a specialized chronic cough clinic can reduce unnecessary testing, avoid treatment delays and uncover treatable causes that are often missed. They review how thoughtful history-taking and using guideline-based diagnostics can improve outcomes. They assess promising new medication trials, and how innovations like AI-powered cough monitoring and Behavioral Cough Suppression Therapy are transforming chronic cough care.
