Pepcid and Fluoride drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pepcid (famotidine) and Fluoride (fluoride). Common drug interactions include cough among females and amnesia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pepcid and Fluoride. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 44 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
