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). (GtoPdb)
