Pepcid ac and Pregabalin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pepcid ac (famotidine) and Pregabalin (pregabalin). Common drug interactions include fall among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pepcid ac and Pregabalin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
