cough that won't go away

well here's the problem my boyfriend has had this cough for about 2 months now and he can't seem to get rid of it. It started off as what we thought was a cold but then it just turned into a cough. It has not gotten worse or better since it started. it also makes his thoart hurt.

Sounds like allergies to me.  Has he tried an OTC allergy med?  Nondrowsy kind and it doesn't have to be an expensive brand.  If it is an allergy related cough; should be fairly clear in 24 to 36 hours on the meds.
