Traditional Chinese medicine has certain advantages on treatment of chronic cough. The efficacy on it is significant with accurate syndrome differentiation and medication. The paper summarized the experiences of Wang Bao - yu, the distinguished veteran doctor of TCM,in the treatment of chronic cough. Prof. Wang believes that the treatment of cough should not just focus on lung. Instead, regulating the functions of lung and spleen, and the functions of lung and kidney should be considered with the self - prepared formulas, Feipi Tongzhi Fang and Feishen Tongzhi Fang. According to the severity of phlegm and heat, cough is differentiated as three patterns, named obstruction of phlegm heat in the lung, blockage of lung by phlegm heat, and stagnation of phlegm heat in the lung.

The self - prepared decoction for eliminating wind and spasm and resolving phlegm should be used in clinical practice and its efficacy was significant. For laryngeal cough, the herbal tea was applicable for chronic case with very good clinical effect.
