Pseudoephedrine may reduce milk supply, but is otherwise safe according to Kellymom.

On Kellymom phenylephrine is listed as an L3 lactation risk which is the same as Pseudoephedrine. I couldn't find any info on Chlopheniramine.

My Dr. had me take Sudafed to dry up my milk supply when I stopped Bfing, so I'm not so sure that's the best thing for you to take.
