Where is this footnote in SSK?

Would the same thing apply to a cough, which is annoying to those around
you?  One shabbos a few weeks ago my allergies were particularly bad, and my
coughing was such that the person sitting in front of me in shul moved to a
different seat.  I think he was being hypersensitive, but according to what
you're saying, it may have been muttar to take Benadryl or something to
solve the problem.
