Can Robitussin Be Taken While On Symbicort?

Yesterday I was prescribed Symbicort for chest congestion due to bronchitis. When I lay down I have wheezing in my chest. When I cough, I don t always cough up anything and my chest feels tight. Can I take Robitussin DM while on Symbicort to help calm the cough and break up mucus?
