Hello

If this is just plain zyrtec, then it is okay to give with robitussin cold and cough as long as it is childrens strength. If it is zyrtec-D, this contains sudafed already, so anything wtih pseudoephidrine should be avoided. If in doubt, call her pharmacist. They will know which zyrtec is prescribed to be on the safe side.
