Diagnosed With Strep Throat. On Amoxicillin And Reactin For Allergies. Safe To Take Benylin Cough Syrup?

Hello I was diagnosed with strep throat today so I am on Amoxicillan and want to take Benylin tonight for my cough to sleep but the bottle says to consult a doctor before taking it if I am on an antihistamine. I am currently on Reactin for dog and environmental allergies so is it not safe to also take Benylin cough syrup? Thank you
