One has to be careful with Tagamet (cimetidine).

OTC in US is 200mg per tablet. 400mg is the beginning RX dose.

Tagamet interacts with other drugs, and affects the metabolism of some. This can change dosing of those other drugs.

This is a drug checker...I suggest anyone going to use Tagamet see if it interacts with other things you may be taking:

Take care!
