Berkley and Jensen Acid Controller Complete and Nicotine

Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.

H2 antagonists may reduce the clearance of nicotine. Cimetidine, 600 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance of an intravenous nicotine dose by 30%. Ranitidine, 300 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance by 10%. The clinical significance of this interaction is not known. Patients should be monitored for increased nicotine effects when using the patches or gum for smoking cessation and dosage adjustments should be made as appropriate.

Antacids and some aluminum, calcium, and magnesium salts may decrease the plasma concentrations of H2-receptor antagonists during oral coadministration. The mechanism of interaction is unknown, but may involve reduced oral absorption due to increased gastric pH. Study data vary, with no changes to nearly 60% reductions in systemic exposures (AUCs) reported for cimetidine, famotidine, and ranitidine. The clinical significance has not been established. As a precaution, patients may consider taking H2-receptor antagonists one to two hours before antacids.
