A member asked:
If i take pepcid complete after eating without it causing any side effects, would i be able to take it without any food at all without it causing any issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Yes, you would be able to take it without major side effect. The reason it's recommended for oral intake prior to meals is because it is best absorbed this way. Hope this helped!
