Brief Answer:
Can be taken

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

I have gone through the interaction list between these two medications. It is safe to take these tablets together.

I also suggest you to do the following for bronchitis

1. avoid cold food and beverages
2. avoid smoking
3. avoid milk and milk products
4. anti histaminic like levocetrzine once at night will help reduce the symptoms

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
