Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Pepcid, also known by its generic name Famotidine, is a medication that helps reduce the amount of acid in your stomach. As an H2 blocker, it is often used to relieve symptoms like heartburn and acid reflux, which can cause discomfort when acid backs up into the throat. People with stomach ulcers, which are sores in the stomach lining, may also benefit from this medication. In addition, it can be prescribed for rare conditions in which the stomach makes too much acid, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
When taking Pepcid, it’s important to follow the instructions given by a doctor to help relieve your symptoms. You can take this medication with or without food. For adults living with problems like ulcers or heartburn, the typical dosage is between 20 to 40 mg twice per day, unless a doctor advises differently. The exact amount you need can vary depending on the specific problem being treated. If you’re only supposed to take it once a day, it’s often recommended to take it at bedtime.
The active ingredient in Pepcid is Famotidine.
Avoid taking or using this medication if you’ve had a previous allergic reaction to Famotidine or other H2-receptor antagonists.
The most common side effects of Pepcid include headache, dizziness, and constipation. Other less frequent side effects are fatigue, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and dry mouth. Most of these reactions are mild, but if they persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider.
Pepcid may rarely cause severe allergic reactions, liver problems such as jaundice or hepatitis, and blood disorders like agranulocytosis or thrombocytopenia. In rare cases, it can also lead to confusion, hallucinations, or serious skin reactions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome. If you notice symptoms such as yellowing of the skin, severe rash, difficulty breathing, or unusual bruising, seek medical attention immediately. Always follow a doctor's guidance while taking Pepcid.
