Suggest Treatment For Chest Discomfort And Nausea While On Treatment For Cough

I have had a cough for 3 weeks. The PA gave me some cough syrup with codeine and some muscle relaxers due to having tight chest muscles. I have been wheezing at night and feel like my chest is heavy during the day. I have been feeling dizzy and nauseated.
