Other Answers:
Try proping your head up with more than one pillow. Sleep in an almost upright position. If there is anything being coughed up, drink plenty of water to loosen it.

Try either sleeping on your stomach - lying on my back seems to almost induce the coughing. If you are coughing alot you may have bronchitis - an inhaler might also be able to help.

Try going to a doctor, I've heard great things!

quit smoking? or stay away from second hand smoke..happens to me everynight as well.

Maybe you're allergic to the fluff from the pillows. Maybe the air in the bedroom is to dry, it must be around 70% relative humidity, try to change that ( air moisturizer etc.). Tea from laurel leaves, max.2 leaves/cup and max.2 cups a day. Boil a lemon 10 minutes, put the juice in a cup, fill it with honey and take two or three teaspoons each time you'll need.
