Acid Fex

The label on the Fexofen says not to take with an antacid ... is Prilosec considered an antacid? Can I take Fexofen with Prilosec? ## No, it can be used with Prilosec, it is not considered a traditional antacid.

It is an antihistamine used in the treatment of allergy symptoms, such as hay fever and urticaria. Inactive Ingredients: - Anhydrous Citric Acid - Crospovidone - Magnesium Stearate - Mannitol - Cellulose, Microcrystalline - Povidone K30 - Sodium Bicarbonate - Aspartame ## The pill you found was an Allegra ODT tablet. It is a round white pill that reads 311 AV & the otherside has a cursive/fancy letter E. Hope that helps! ## As of writing this I can't find any listings from the standard FDA search, but if it's an over the counter item, as cowbells stated, then that would explain why it isn't ...
