I am on warfarin and i have bronchiectasis. what is a reasonably safe cough medicine if i get covid. i have asked gp but shes not sure. i am aware that none are totally safe but just the one that would least affect the inr?

Cough medicine ingredients will not affect the INR to make them unsafe in normal dosage
