Um, it's like a sinus type medication. It's chemically related to epinephrine but not the same...just freakin google it! lol.
Phenyephrine HCl w/guaifenesin long acting tablets should not be used in patients taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors or other sympathomimetics.
Methyldopa (Aldomet) Reserpine (Diupres, Hydropres) etc.
The treatment of overdosage should provide symptomatic and supportive care. If the amount ingested is considered dangerous or excessive, induce vomiting with ipecac syrup unless the patient is convulsing, comatose, or has lost the gag reflex, in which case perform gastric lavage using a large-bore tube. If indicated, follow with activated charcoal and a saline cathartic. Since the effects of phenylephrine HCl w/guaifenesin long acting tablet may last up to 12 hours, treatment should be continued for at least that length of time.

It sounds like you should avoid it.
