Can I take pholcodiene linctus?

I have a hideous viral throat infection and am struggling to get by on just paracetemol and honey/lemon. In the past pholcodiene has really helped that tickly sore cough that keeps me up all night.

I have read differing opinions - have any of you actually been told by Gp/pharmacist that its ok?

No pharmacy open on a Sunday round here to ask but we do have a bottle in the cupboard!

Gargle warm salt water every hour. Heals the scratchiness!
