Pepcid ac and Cefdinir drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pepcid ac (famotidine) and Cefdinir (cefdinir). Common drug interactions include chronic kidney disease among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pepcid ac and Cefdinir. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 65 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

Pepcid ac has active ingredients of famotidine. It is often used in gastroesophageal reflux disease. eHealthMe is studying from 9,573 Pepcid ac users. Check the latest studies of Pepcid ac.
What is Cefdinir?
Cefdinir has active ingredients of cefdinir. It is often used in sinusitis. eHealthMe is studying from 9,210 Cefdinir users. Check the latest studies of Cefdinir.
eHealthMe: drug outcomes in the real world
eHealthMe runs one of the largest post-marketing drug safety studies in the world. We study millions of patients and 5,000 more each day. Our data-driven phase IV clinical trials have been referenced on 800+ peer-reviewed medical publications including The Lancet, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, and Nature. Tools to study our phase IV findings are available to the public, anonymous and free >>>.
65 people who take Pepcid ac and Cefdinir together, and have interactions are studied.
