Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCPRITION
A competitive histamine H2-receptor antagonist. Its main pharmacodynamic effect is the inhibition of gastric secretion.
DESCRIPTION
Famotidine is a histamine H2 receptor antagonist. The drug is poorly soluble in the low pH of the stomach so suffers from poor bioavailability. Low dose (10-20 mg) famotidine is available over-the-counter in some countries. Marketing of a combination of famotidine with antacids magnesium hydroxide and calcium carbonate (Pepcidtwo®) has been officially discontinued in the UK (2015).

DESCRIPTION
Famotidine is a histamine H2 receptor antagonist. It is used to treat duodenal ulcers, benign gastric ulcers, GERD, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
(Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION
Famotidine (MK-208) is a propanimidamide and histamine H2-receptor antagonist with antacid activity. As a competitive inhibitor of histamine H2-receptors on the basolateral membrane of parietal cells, famotidine reduces basal and nocturnal gastric acid secretion, thereby decreasing gastric volume, acidity, and the amount of gastric acid released in response to various stimuli.
