Description :
Famotidine is an off-white to white crystalline powder which belongs to the H2-receptor antagonist class of substances. It is used extensively in healthcare and pharmaceutical industries to treat stomach ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD) as well as heartburn. The drug works by blocking the action of histamine on H2 receptors within the stomach lining. This lowers acid production and reduces irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Famotidine is well-known due to its powerful potency as well as its rapid and effective action, with low drug interactions, which makes it among the top prescribed drugs for disorders involving acid. With excellent stability, solubility, and pharmacological performance, Famotidine is suitable for oral, injectable, and combination drug formulations. Complementary ingredients like Disodium Succinate and Ethyl Oleate are often used in related pharmaceutical preparations for enhanced formulation quality.

Famotidine is primarily used as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in drugs designed to reduce stomach acid and relieve symptoms of indigestion, GERD, and ulcers.
It is used in oral tablets, suspensions, and injectable forms to treat heartburn, acid reflux, and hyperacidity. Famotidine provides quick relief and promotes healing of the stomach and intestinal lining.
Often combined with antacids or pain relievers, Famotidine enhances efficacy in over-the-counter and prescription digestive health formulations.
Used in pharmaceutical R&D laboratories for studying histamine receptor blockers, acid regulation, and drug metabolism. Complementary pharmaceutical intermediates such as Phytol and Fenchyl Alcohol are also utilized in similar formulation and research applications.
Always wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing when handling Famotidine.
