Description
Famotidine 20 mg tablet is an antihistamine used to treat conditions related to excess stomach acid production. It is commonly prescribed for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Famotidine works by blocking histamine receptors in the stomach, specifically H2 receptors, reducing the production of gastric acid.
The medication is also used in the prevention and treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers. It promotes the healing of ulcers by reducing the acid environment in the stomach, allowing the mucosal lining to heal. Famotidine is also indicated in managing conditions like acid reflux and heartburn that result from the backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus.
Famotidine is typically administered orally in tablet form, with the usual dosage being 20 mg once or twice a day, depending on the severity of the condition. The medication can be taken with or without food, and it is recommended to follow the prescribed dosage regimen for optimal effectiveness.
