I would rather suggest you to take steam inhalation three times a day with gargling. Cough syrup usually dries the expectorant so there will be sudden relief but then the dry coughing might occur again.
Next Steps
Steam inhalation thrice a day
Gargling
Intake of mild hot water.
Health Tips
Try avoiding cough syrup as much as possible.

Cough syrup doesn't jave any interaction. You can take. But if you have done your home remedies like gargling and honey ginger. Better show a doctor. Antihistamines will be better choice than cough syrup
