Hi,

 My grandma has stage IV lung cancer and keeps coughing. Is there any way that we can help relief her cough? She is currently on Iressa and cough mixture prescribed by the oncologist.

 Thank you.

Hi Faith,

Ask your oncologist about adding Mucinex DM.  It helps keep your lungs clear.  It may not take away the cough completely, but it will make it easier.

God Bless
