'before meals' as in the Latin, 'Ante Cibum'
However, I just watched an episode of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" in which the correct answer was "Acid Control"!
Go figure..............
The three other H2 receptor blockers, famotidine (Pepcid, Pepcid AC), nizatidine (Axid), and ranitidine (Zantac), are similar in their uses.
The acronym AC stands for Before Meals.
I think that ac stands for academic, as it is usually found in email addresses linked to colleges and universities.
Gee, I dunno -- direct current, District of Columbia, whatever. Depends on whether you mean AC/DC or Washington DC.
ac is After Christ and bc is Before Christ

tums usually work just fine, so does pepcid ac, and also pepto bismol.
Pepcid AD stands for "Pepcid Acid Depressant." It is an over-the-counter medication that contains famotidine, which is an H2 receptor antagonist used to reduce stomach acid production. Pepcid AD is commonly used to relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and upset stomach. The "AD" in the name emphasizes its use for alleviating symptoms associated with excess stomach acid.
This will be fine. Pepcid will not interfere with the antibiotic. Remember to take all of your azithromycin even after you feel better. You want to kill all the antibiotics and not leave any hiding in your body!
No. If anything, it will increase the analgesic effect. Just make sure you only take the recommended dosage.
There may be a temporary shortage of Pepcid AC due to high demand or supply chain issues. It's also possible that the store is temporarily out of stock and you may need to check back later or look for it at a different store. It's a good idea to ask a store employee for assistance or consider purchasing it online.
There was a recall for pepcid complete
Pepcid complete contain magnesium hydroxide.
Pepcid AC Complete, which contains famotidine and calcium carbonate, is generally not recommended for children under 12 years without a doctor's guidance. For younger children, it's essential to consult a pediatrician to determine the appropriate treatment for heartburn or indigestion. Always follow dosing guidelines provided by healthcare professionals to ensure safety and effectiveness.
