Can i take cough medicine with magic mouthwash?

Sure: The "magic mouthwash" that you are using for mouth sores and the cough medicine should not cause a problem. As long as the cough medicine does not burn your mouth, you should be ok.

Yes: Usually the magic mouthwash contains a combination of meds treating numerous symptoms. Antibactierial agent, antifungal product, numbing gel, etc. Taking a cough medicine should not be contraindicated or have adverse effect.
