Abstract:
A 25-year-old woman complained of coughing for over 8 weeks. The coughing was not relieved by a bronchodilator (beta 2-adrenoceptor agonist; clenbuterol), and anti-allergic agent (azelastine), or an inhaled corticosteroid. The thromboxane synthetase inhibitor ozagrel completely abolished her cough. In this case, thromboxane A2 may have contributed to the coughing.
