Extremely Dry Throat and Cough

Who else has that very annoying dry throat that causes a very dry cough?  I had the pleasure of having it myself while I was out of the country.  Good thing I had access to remedies.   I would have thought that Bryonia was the better choice because it is a "dry" remedy, but when I tried it I had only minimal relief.  I repertorized my symptoms and Pulsatilla came up number one.   I took a few doses of Pulsatilla 30C and felt so much better.
