Do you already have a bottle of cough syrup which you are intending to take? Or are you intending to buy a cough syrup? There are some that are compatible with breastfeeding. For dry cough (no phlegm), there is dextromethorphan that can be bought from a pharmacist at Guardian/Watsons/Unity. If it is a phlegmy cough, can take guaifenesin. If you have a bottle of cough syrup on hand, can check the drug names in LactMed phone app/ website to check if it is ok to take when breastfeeding. Alternatively take manuka honey 4-5x a day and it works wonder.

prospan for my family. it is natural that's why I like it. also if cough is mild, best not to take any medications. drink plenty of water and rest. that's the best option. cough medicines does not help to cure the cough. this was told to me by a GP.

You can take this. It's prescribed for kids who are down with cough too. It's weird to say this but it tastes yummy! Like honey! But don't expect this to be as effective as the regular cough medicines given they aren't as strong in potency.
