A member asked:
It is safe to take pepcid (famotidine) at least one hour before taking dilantin 200mg?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pepcid/Dilantin: Pepcid (famotidine) may increase effects of Dilantin. Taking Pepcid (famotidine) at least few hours before or after Dilantin might lessen that effect. Review with your doctor first.
