Bucod SR suppresses the cough reflex, so it should not be used together with expectorants; doing so may cause mucus to build up in the airways, raising the risk of bronchospasm and respiratory infections. If the cough lasts more than 7 days (more than 3 days in children under 12 years of age), a doctor should be consulted.
