Pharmacological action

Famotidine has an antiulcer effect. Blocker of H2-histamine receptors of the III generation. Suppresses basal and stimulated by histamine, gastrin and acetylcholine production of hydrochloric acid. Reduces pepsin activity. It enhances the protective mechanisms of the gastric mucosa, promotes the healing of damage associated with the action of hydrochloric acid (including scarring of stress ulcers) and the cessation of gastrointestinal bleeding by increasing the formation of gastric mucus and the content of glycoproteins in it, stimulation of secretion of bicarbonate by the gastric mucosa, endogenous synthesis of prostaglandins in it and the rate of regeneration. Does not significantly change the level of gastrin in plasma. Weakly inhibits the oxidase system of cytochrome P450 in the liver.

After oral administration, the action begins after 1 hour, reaches a maximum within 3 hours. The duration of the drug with a single dose depends on the dose and ranges from 12 to 24 hours.

Pharmacokinetics of

After oral administration, it is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, the maximum plasma concentration is reached within 1-3.5 hours. Bioavailability - 40-45%, increases when taken with food and decreases with antacids. Communication with plasma proteins - 15-20%.

30-35% of famotidine is metabolized in the liver (with the formation of S-oxide). It penetrates into the cerebrospinal fluid, through the placental barrier, excreted in breast milk.

Elimination mainly occurs through the kidneys: 27-40% of the drug is excreted unchanged in the urine. The elimination half-life is 2.5-4 hours, in patients with creatinine clearance below 30 ml per minute, it increases to 10-12 hours. In patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance below 10 ml / min), the elimination half-life increases to 20 hours.

Indications

Peptic ulcer and duodenal ulcer, prevention of relapse Erosive gastroduodenitis Functional dyspepsia, associated with increased secretory function Symptomatic and stressful ulcers of the gastrointestinal tract Reflux esophagitis prevention of relapses associated with prolonged use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs Zollinger-Ellison syndrome Systemic mastocytosis Polyendocrine adenomatosis Prevention of postoperative hemorrhage in patients with gastrointestinal surgery (Mendelssohn syndrome) Prevention of aspiration pneumonitis Dyspepsia with epigastrium bubbled or retrosternal pain occurring at night or associated with food intake.

Contraindications

Pregnancy, lactation, hypersensitivity to famotidine and other H2-histamine receptor blockers, children. With caution: hepatic and / or renal failure, cirrhosis of the liver with portosystemic encephalopathy (history), immunodeficiency.
