See the doctor. You don't fight Tbc with OTC meds. You may even wind up in a special facility; it is contagious, you know. More likely you have pneumonia, but that takes the right meds, too. Don't screw around.

you must see the physician to validate if you have active TB, test like PPD and sputum exam should be done first for confirmation.

With a cough more than two weeks, it is more likely that you have pertussis, or whooping cough. There are many other possibilities though, so you should go to the doctor and get checked out. Over-the-counter medicines will not clear up a bacterial infection
