I will share our experience with cough cyrups. Murph had a severe cough last year, and the Dr. prescribed an over the counter syrup, which said that PD patients should not take it. I was quite upset, and contacted his office. He assured me that there was no problem, and in fact, in some cases, the meds actually helped PD. I would encourage you to contact your Dr. or pharmacist, but I would say that the possible problems must be minor.
