It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Coadministration with other agents causing these effects, especially vasodilators and alpha-2 agonists, may result in additive effects on blood pressure and heart rate. Data have been conflicting. Additive pharmacodynamic effects were not observed in some clinical studies.
MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring of the patient's hemodynamic status are recommended during coadministration.
