Trusted Prescription Drug Information

• Sucralfate (Carafate), which is also used to treat stomach conditions, will decrease the amount of lansoprazole that is absorbed through the stomach. Prevacid should be taken at least 30 minutes before sucralfate to prevent an interaction.
• Some other medications such as ketoconazole (Nizoral), ampicillin (Omnipen, Principen), digoxin (Lanoxin, Lanoxicaps), and iron (Feosol, Mol-Iron, Fergon, Femiron) may have decreased effects because Prevacid hinders their absorption from the stomach. Tell your doctor if you are taking any of these medications.
• Drugs other than those listed here may also interact with Prevacid. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including herbal products.
