You should never give human medications to dogs - dogs do not react to the medications the same way people do. In particular, you should not give an antitussive (cough suppressant) to your dog if he is coughing as the coughing is his body's way of getting disease out of his lungs. If your dog is coughing, you should take him to the veterinarian for evaluation - there are several common causes of coughing in dogs (most notably "kennel cough") that need to be treated with antibiotics.

I have a pekapoo that is about 6 years old. She gets a hacking cough about twice a year around the time seasons change. I give her regular robitussin. She has never had a problem with it and it seems to work really well for her. I give her about a quarter of a teaspoon. Hope this helps.
