Polypep Tablets Warnings

Warning 1

Do not stop taking your medicine because you are feeling better, unless advised to do so by your doctor.

Warning 2

Since cross sensitivity has been observed among H2-receptor antagonists, famotidine should not be administered to patients with a history of hypersensitivity to other drugs in this class.

Warning 3

Since famotidine is secreted mainly via the kidneys, caution should be exercised when treating patients with renal insufficiency. A reduction in the daily dose should be considered if creatinine clearance falls below 10 ml/min .
