Nexium, a proton pump inhibitor, is now recommended by Exit as a viable alternative to Tagamet, although it remains a second choice, not first hand.
Regarding anti-emetics, the recommendation became to couple 30mg of Meto with 8mg of Ondansetron (Zoffran)

So if I'm understanding this correctly, proton pump inhibitors (Nexium) are being seen as alternatives and not as a addition to the regimen by Exit?

ARE TAGAMET AND PEPCID THE SAME THING?
Tagamet (cimetidine) and Pepcid (famotidine) are histamine receptor antagonists used to treat and prevent certain types of ulcer, to treat conditions that cause the stomach to produce too much acid, and to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Pepcid is also used to treat Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
Both Tagamet and Pepcid are available over-the-counter (OTC) and as generics.
Side effects of Tagamet and Pepcid that are similar include headache, dizziness, joint or muscle pain, diarrhea, nausea, or constipation.
Side effects of Tagamet that are different from Pepcid include drowsiness, depression, agitation, breast swelling or tenderness (in men), or skin rash.
Side effects of Pepcid that are different from Tagamet include fatigue, weakness, mood changes, insomnia, dry mouth, or vomiting.
Both Tagamet and Pepcid may interact with antacids or ketoconazole.
Tagamet may also interact with antidepressants or blood thinners.
Pepcid may also interact with alcohol, atazanavir, itraconazole, cefditoren, dasatinib, delavirdine, fosamprenavir, or aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
I don't know what they mean by "interact with" exactly. I see you shouldn't take NSAIDS such as ibuprofen with Pepcid. The generic of Pepcid is famitidone. I take famitidine and it is much stronger than Tagamet so I don't know why they don't recommend that instead.

Is Tagamet sold over the counter in the UK? Is it even sold under that name in Europe? What's equivalent across the pond?
