How it works
This product’s leaflet is published as a scanned document. This section quotes the US prescribing label for the same active substance (famotidine). It describes the substance, not this Bulgarian product — its uses and doses can differ.
Famotidine is a competitive inhibitor of histamine-2 (H 2 ) receptors.
The primary clinically important pharmacologic activity of famotidine is inhibition of gastric secretion.
Famotidine is eliminated by renal (65 to 70%) and metabolic (30 to 35%) routes.
Bioavailability may be slightly increased by food, or slightly decreased by antacids; however, these effects are of no clinical consequence.
