If given by an paediatrics doctor and if given in proper doses (based on body weight) it is a safe. Wish your kid a speedy recovery.

Your baby is vomiting as he cannot spit the phlegm like adults, and your cough syrup helps in liquifying the phlegm so after using it usually babies vomit but that's not a side effect. But if the vomits are excessive please take a pediatrician consultation.
