A member asked:
Can you take ciprofloxin to treat a uti if you are already taking pepcid (famotidine) for severe heartburn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be ok: This combination should be ok. As with all medications, however, it is best to speak to your primary care provider before starting anything new, and be sure to tell her or him about all drugs you are taking, including over the counters and supplements.
