    Famotidine is a prominent histamine-2 blocker, reducing stomach acid and alleviating symptoms of heartburn and indigestion. This drug is widely known as Pepcid AC and can be purchased as a generic variation. Adults and children 12 years or older can consume 10-20 mg of Famotidine once or twice per day, whereas 40 mg once a day is sufficient for stomach ulcer prevention. Famotidine is safe for pregnancy but should be strictly administered under medical supervision while breastfeeding. The effects of this oral medication can last for anywhere between 5 to 10 hours, beginning within an hour of consumption. It's important to consult your physician or pharmacist before taking Famotidine, as warnings and precautions include monitoring elderly patients, caution with severe kidney disease, monitoring of liver function, and interaction with other specific medications.

  • Missed Dose

    If you have missed a dose of Famotidine 10mg/5ml, it is important to take action. You should take the missed dose as soon as you remember it, but if it is already nearly time for your next scheduled dose, it is best to skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double up on your dose in an attempt to catch up, as this can result in an overdose. If you are uncertain about what to do, it is recommended to refer to the instructions provided by your pharmacist on the label of your medication container or to consult your doctor or pharmacist for guidance on how to proceed. It is essential to be aware that if you have any further questions or concerns about missing a dose of Famotidine 10mg/5ml or any other related matter, it is always best to consult with a qualified medical professional such as your doctor or pharmacist, who can provide you with guidance that is tailored to your specific situation.

  • How To Use

    When administering Famotidine 10mg/5ml syrup to children and infants, it is important to follow the instructions carefully to ensure the correct dosage and minimize discomfort. Before proceeding, verify the medication's label to ensure it is the correct one, that it hasn't expired, and that it is appropriate for the patient's age group. In case of any doubts, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist. To accurately measure the required dose, it is essential to utilize the measuring device provided with the medication, whether it be a cup or a syringe. Ensure that the measuring tool displays measurements in milliliters (mL). If a syringe is used, it should only be done if the cup is not available and the syringe is provided. In case the dose needs to be divided, make sure to measure the exact amount required for the dose. The concentration of the syrup, 10mg/5ml, should be diluted with cold water, milk, or another beverage as advised by the healthcare provider. This dilution is essential to administer the correct and safe dose to children and infants. It is recommended to give the diluted medicine to your child and encourage them to finish the whole dose. If they struggle to take it, mixing it with a flavor of beverage that your child enjoys might help. In case a dose is missed, it is safest to give it as soon as you remember. However, if it almost time for the next dose, it is better to skip the missed dose and continue with the regular dosing schedule. Doubling the dose to make up for a missed one is not recommended. It is very important to complete the full course of treatment, even if your child feels better. Stopping or changing the dosage without consulting a healthcare provider can result in unwanted symptoms and possibly slow down the healing process. If you have any questions or need further clarification, it is recommended to seek advice from your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
