Robitussin (guaifenesin): You can take it during breasfeeding but it has no impact on the possibility of your child contracting rsv.

Bronchitis? Been coughing very frequently for the past 2 weeks. Nose is not stuffy but cough has mucus. Robitussin DM (guaifenesin and dextromethorphan) makes it better. Why the cough?
