4.2 Therapeutic Uses

Anti-Ulcer Agents; Histamine H2 Antagonists

National Library of Medicine's Medical Subject Headings online file (MeSH, 1999)


Famotidine is currently the drug of choice for initial treatment and maintenance therapy in most patients with uncomplicated gastric or duodenal ulcer. ... A single bedtime dose of famotidine 40 mg is as efficatious as previously recommended multidose regimens and increases compliance.

American Medical Association, Council on Drugs. AMA Drug Evaluations Annual 1994. Chicago, IL: American Medical Association, 1994., p. 892


Histamine H2-receptor antagonists are indicated in the short-term treatment of active duodenal ulcer. They are also indicated (at reduce dosage) in the prevention of duodenal ulcer recurrence in selected patients. /Histamine H2-receptor antagonists; Included in US product labeling/

USP Convention. USPDI - Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. 16th ed. Volume I. Rockville, MD: U.S. Pharmaceutical Convention, Inc. 1996 (Plus updates)., p. 1611


Famotidine ... /is/ indicated in the short-term treatment of active benign gastric ulcer. /Included in US product labeling/

4.3 Drug Warning

Although appropriate studies on the relationship of age to the effects of these medicines /cimetidine, famotidine, and ranitidine/ have not been performed in the geriatric population, no geriatrics-specific problems have been documented to date. However, confusion is more likely to occur in elderly patients with impaired hepatic or renal function.

USP Convention. USPDI - Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. 16th ed. Volume I. Rockville, MD: U.S. Pharmaceutical Convention, Inc. 1996 (Plus updates)., p. 1613


Adverse nervous system effects (eg, headache, dizziness) and GI effects (eg, constipation, diarrhea) occur most frequently during famotidine therapy. Although adverse effects of the drug generally are not severe, discontinuance of famotidine therapy has been necessary in up to 14% of patients. Adverse effects generally are similar when famotidine is administered orally or IV.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2151


Fever, hypertension, flushing, musculoskeletal pain, arthralgia, and tinnitus have been reported in 1% or less of patients receiving famotidine, but a causal relationship to the drug has not been established in many cases. An acute episode of gout occurred in one patient during therapy with the drug.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2151


Leukocytosis, leukopenia, neutropenia, pancytopenia, agranulocytosis, eosinophilia, prolonged erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and thrombocytopenia have occurred rarely in patients receiving famotidine. Changes in serum protein or cholesterol concentrations also have occurred.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Anti-Ulcer Agents

Various agents with different action mechanisms used to treat or ameliorate PEPTIC ULCER or irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. This has included ANTIBIOTICS to treat HELICOBACTER INFECTIONS; HISTAMINE H2 ANTAGONISTS to reduce GASTRIC ACID secretion; and ANTACIDS for symptomatic relief. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Ulcer Agents.)


Histamine H2 Antagonists

Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H2 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of histamine. Their clinically most important action is the inhibition of acid secretion in the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers. Smooth muscle may also be affected. Some drugs in this class have strong effects in the central nervous system, but these actions are not well understood. (See all compounds classified as Histamine H2 Antagonists.)

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

All H2-receptor antagonists are distributed in breast milk and cerebral spinal fluid. /Histamine H2-receptor antagonists/

USP Convention. USPDI - Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. 16th ed. Volume I. Rockville, MD: U.S. Pharmaceutical Convention, Inc. 1996 (Plus updates)., p. 1612


Distribution of famotidine into human body tissues and fluids has not been fully characterized. The apparent volume of distribution of the drug is reported to be 1.1-1.4 l/kg in adults and does not appear to be altered substantially in patients with renal dysfunction. Following oral or IV administration in rats, famotidine is widely distributed, appearing in highest concentrations in the kidney, liver, pancreas, and submandibular gland. The drug is 15-20% protein bound.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2149


In rats famotidine appears to distribute only minimally into the CNS, and does not cross the placenta. It is not known whether the drug crosses the placenta in humans. Famotidine is distributed into milk in rats; however, it is not known whether the drug is distributed into milk in humans.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2149


Famotidine is excreted principally in urine via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion. Approximately 25-30 or 65-80% of a dose is excreted unchanged in urine within 24 hours following oral or IV administration, respectively, and approximately 13-49 or 52-82% of a single 40 mg oral or IV dose respectively, is excreted within 72 hours. ... The remainder of an orally administered dose is eliminated in feces.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2149


For more Absorption, Distribution and Excretion (Complete) data for FAMOTIDINE (7 total), please visit the HSDB record page.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Famotidine is metabolized in the liver to famotidine S-oxide (S-famotidine). The metabolite does not appear to inhibit gastric acid secretion. Orally administered famotidine undergoes minimal metabolism on first pass through the liver.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2149


5.6 Mechanism of Action

H2-receptor antagonists inhibit basal and nocturnal gastric acid secretion by competitive inhibition of the action of histamine at the histamine H2-receptors of the parietal cells. They also inhibit gastric acid secretion stimulated by food, betazole, pentagastrin, caffeine, insulin, and physiological vagal reflex. /Histamine H2-receptor antagonists/

USP Convention. USPDI - Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. 16th ed. Volume I. Rockville, MD: U.S. Pharmaceutical Convention, Inc. 1996 (Plus updates)., p. 1612


Weak inhibitor of hepatic cytochrome p450 mixed function oxidase system.

USP Convention. USPDI - Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. 16th ed. Volume I. Rockville, MD: U.S. Pharmaceutical Convention, Inc. 1996 (Plus updates)., p. 1612


Famotidine is a competitive H2 receptor antagonist that inhibits basal, overnight, and pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion. Pharmacologically, it is three times more potent than ranitidine and 20 times more potent than cimetidine.

American Medical Association, Council on Drugs. AMA Drug Evaluations Annual 1994. Chicago, IL: American Medical Association, 1994., p. 902

Ulfam JDMF

The Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) established the Japan Drug Master File (JDMF), also known as the Master File (MF), to permit Japanese and foreign manufacturers of drug substances, intermediates, excipients, raw materials, and packaging materials (‘Products’) to voluntarily register confidential information about the production and management of their products in Japan.

The Ulfam Drug Master File in Japan (Ulfam JDMF) empowers Ulfam API manufacturers to present comprehensive information (e.g., production methods, data, etc.) to the review authority, i.e., PMDA (Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices Agency).

PMDA reviews the Ulfam JDMF during the approval evaluation for pharmaceutical products. At the time of Ulfam JDMF registration, PMDA checks if the format is accurate, if the necessary items have been included (application), and if data has been attached.

Ulfam KDMF

In Korea, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) is in charge of regulating pharmaceutical products and services.

Pharmaceutical companies submit a Ulfam Drug Master File in Korea (Ulfam KDMF) to the MFDS, which includes comprehensive information about the production, processing, facilities, materials, packaging, and testing of Ulfam. The MFDS reviews the Ulfam KDMF as part of the drug registration process and uses the information provided in the Ulfam KDMF to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug.

After submitting a Ulfam KDMF to the MFDS, the registered manufacturer can provide importers or distributors with the registration number without revealing confidential information to Korean business partners. Applicants seeking to register their Ulfam API can apply through the Korea Drug Master File (KDMF).

Ulfam CEP

A Ulfam CEP of the European Pharmacopoeia monograph is often referred to as a Ulfam Certificate of Suitability (COS). The purpose of a Ulfam CEP is to show that the European Pharmacopoeia monograph adequately controls the purity of Ulfam EP produced by a given manufacturer. Suppliers of raw materials can prove the suitability of Ulfam to their clients by showing that a Ulfam CEP has been issued for it. The manufacturer submits a Ulfam CEP (COS) as part of the market authorization procedure, and it takes on the role of a Ulfam CEP holder for the record. Additionally, the data presented in the Ulfam CEP (COS) is managed confidentially and offers a centralized system acknowledged by numerous nations, exactly like the Ulfam DMF.

A Ulfam CEP (COS) is recognised by all 36 nations that make up the European Pharmacopoeia Convention. Ulfam CEPs may be accepted in nations that are not members of the Ph. Eur. at the discretion of the authorities there.

A Ulfam CoA (Certificate of Analysis) is a formal document that attests to Ulfam's compliance with Ulfam specifications and serves as a tool for batch-level quality control.

Ulfam CoA mostly includes findings from lab analyses of a specific batch. For each Ulfam CoA document that a company creates, the USFDA specifies specific requirements, such as supplier information, material identification, transportation data, evidence of conformity and signature data.

Ulfam may be tested according to a variety of international standards, such as European Pharmacopoeia (Ulfam EP), Ulfam JP (Japanese Pharmacopeia) and the US Pharmacopoeia (Ulfam USP).

Inform the supplier about your product requirements, specifying if you need a product with particular monograph like EP (Ph. Eur.), USP, JP, BP, or any other quality. In addition, clarify whether you need hydrochloride (HCl), anhydricum, base, micronisatum or a specific level of purity. To find reputable suppliers, utilize the filters and select those certified by GMP, FDA, or any other certification as per your requirement.
