Robitussin is an expectorant and as such can help aid thin mucus so it comes out. Some women have tacky CM and cough medicine can help turn it into EWCM. Cough medicines are commonly suggested to women who don't have a lot of EWCM. Cough medicine was not meant to do this, but some women have found that, although it's
not licensed to help with EWCM, it does. Other women are not
comfortable
using medicines for things that they're not supposed to do. If you
decide to take it, make sure you are drinking lots of water and are
well-hydrated. 
Toni Wescheler, the author of Taking Charge of Your Fertility recommends taking it as do doctors in the article, Improvement of Cervial Factors with Guaifensein. There are many posts about Robitussin and EWCM. Below are just a few. Do your research and decide if you think it's right for you. It cannot create mucus if you don't have any to begin with. Drinking lots of water can help you make mucus. If you do decide to take Robitussin, look at the ingredients. You want it to have Guaifenesin, which is the expectorant that will thin mucus. Don't get Robitussin DM.
If you're going to take it, women usually take 2 teaspoons (200 mg) 2-3 times a day with a max of 4 teaspoons 4 times a day. If you're taking the pill format, take 400-600mg. Women typically start 5 days before ovulation and take it through ovulation.
