Famotidine Warnings
This medication comes with important safety information and warnings that should be carefully considered. Please review the following points and consult your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns.
Neurological Side Effects: Famotidine (Pepcid AC) may lead to brain-related side effects, such as confusion, delirium, hallucinations, agitation, seizures, and weakness. These effects are more likely to occur in individuals with kidney problems due to the impaired ability to metabolize the drug, resulting in elevated blood levels. If you have kidney issues, your healthcare provider might adjust your dosage. Discuss any kidney conditions with your healthcare provider before starting famotidine (Pepcid AC).
Potential Cancer Risk: In rare cases, persistent heartburn could indicate a more serious stomach condition or cancer. Medications like famotidine (Pepcid AC) may obscure these warning signs. If heartburn persists after completing treatment with famotidine (Pepcid AC), seek medical advice as additional testing may be required to rule out severe conditions like stomach cancer.
Contraindication: Avoid the use of this medication if you have a severe allergy to other histamine-2 (H2) antagonists. Consult your healthcare provider for alternatives.
This information is crucial for safe medication use, especially for those with specific health conditions. Always consult your healthcare provider for guidance tailored to your health needs.
