Famotidine DC Granules

Product Overview

Famotidine is used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux), peptic ulcer disease and heartburn. Famotidine is a histamine H2 receptor antagonist. It works by reducing the acid produced in the stomach. This helps to relieve acid-related indigestion and heartburn. Famotidine is generally considered safe in pregnancy as studies have not shown an increased risk of birth defects.
