Can you take Equaline Acid Reducer with Folic acid?

Folic acid has a major potential interaction with Anemia of Unspecified Nutritional Deficiency.

The use of folic acid is contraindicated in patients with undiagnosed anemia. Folic acid in dosages above 1 mg/day can obscure the diagnosis of pernicious anemia by alleviating the hematologic abnormalities while allowing the progression of neurologic complications. In addition, folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where vitamin B12 is deficient.

The cimetidine in Equaline Acid Reducer has a major potential interaction with Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage.

Histamine H2 receptor antagonists should not be used in the presence of vomit with blood, or bloody or black stools. These might be serious conditions and the diagnosis needs to be ruled out.

The cimetidine in Equaline Acid Reducer has a moderate potential interaction with Hemodialysis.

Cimetidine is partially removed by hemodialysis and should be administered after dialysis.

The cimetidine in Equaline Acid Reducer has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Cimetidine is partially metabolized by the liver, and to a greater extent when administered orally than when given intravenously. Although dosage reductions are generally not necessary, therapy with cimetidine should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease. Hepatotoxicity has been associated with cimetidine use. In addition, liver disease appears to be a risk factor for cimetidine-related central nervous system toxicity, which may include mental confusion, agitation, psychosis, depression, anxiety, hallucinations, and disorientation. These effects are usually reversible within 3 to 4 days after discontinuation of therapy.

The cimetidine in Equaline Acid Reducer has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Cimetidine and its metabolites are primarily eliminated by the kidney. The daily dosage should initially be reduced in patients with moderate to severe renal impairment (CrCl < 50 mL/min). If necessary, the daily dosage may be increased with caution. Renal dysfunction also appears to be a risk factor for cimetidine-related central nervous system toxicity, which may include mental confusion, agitation, psychosis, depression, anxiety, hallucinations, and disorientation. These effects are generally reversible within 3 to 4 days after discontinuation of therapy.
