Good job you don't have plague or syphilis either.
This is a silly idea.
I'm really sorry to hear you've got a respiratory infection. I have family history of asthma and well remember midnight calls from my grandmother (who lived at the other end of town) unable to talk, coughing and gasping - which was enough to make my mother know what was up and go to help.
Her treatment for our coughs as children was spoonfulls of cherry brandy. Seems we all had "irresponsible" elders.
Anything with capsacin is good to supress the cough reflex, so if you like chillies, have a Thai red curry.
