Hello,
Yes, it may be taken while on Gabapentin drug. Guaifenesin is an expectorant drug used to reduce chest congestion caused by the common cold, infections, or allergies.
Since, there is no documented evidence of any harmful interaction with Gabapentin; Guaifenesin may be taken along with it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
