Hello, Jexxie! How are you?

No, this is an antibiotic that's used to treat or prevent bacterial infections, so it will not do anything to treat or suppress coughing.

Side effects to this medication may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Did your doctor prescribe this for you?
