User Reviews for famotidine oral

I had a lot of stomach pain and heartburn. My stomach hurt most of the time. Started taking famotidine as proscribed by my doctor. Also had IBS symptoms. This medicine has done wonders for my stomach and IBS. Very pleased with the results.

I HAVE ONLY BEEN TAKING 20MG FAMOTIDINE FOR A FEW WEEKS FOR ACUTE STOMACH,ABDOMINAL PAIN, AND IT HAS WORKED GREAT, AS IT HAS BEEN VERY EFFECTIVE IN REDUCING STOMACH ACID, AND THUS THE PAIN. I HAVE, HOWEVER, HAD A PERSISENT, NON-PRODUCTIVE COUGH, FAST, IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT, ITCHING, REDNESS OF THE FACE, SORE THROAT, RESTLESSNESS, MENTAL/MOOD CHANGES, CONFUSION, EASY BRUISING, DRY MOUTH, DROWSINESS, YET TROUBLE SLEEPING AT NIGHT, LOSS OF APPETITE, AND TASTE PROBLEMS.

I am slow to digest food so the extra acids in stomach inflame lower esophogus. This pill has no side effects and quickly reduces and controls my stomach acid. I make sure to take same time everyday for if I take four hours later than usual the extra acid quickly inflame my esophogus.

I take a 40mg tablet of famotidine in the morning and also one before bed. However, if I get reflux or indigestion durating the day I will take two and usually two antacid tablets and within 10-20min. my pain has eased tremendously.

This medication has been very effective for indigestion and heartburn. However, it was prescribed for hives/itching which I have had for 5 months. The hives have been much worse since taking this medicine. The doctor prescribed 40 mg twice a day, and I noticed my hives/itching got worse. so it has been good for my stomach, bad for my allergies and hives. I think it has reduced the acid so much, that I am not digesting my food properly.

I have never had heartburn, acid reflux, before.. this is what I was prescribed.. Within three weeks, I hurt WAY MORE... then I did before I started taking this drug

have been on this drug less then one week, after taking thi medication with my regular meds I became dizzy unable to stand or walk speech was slurred and needed help walking driver helped me into car. Once at dialysis recieved help to get to pod nurse helped me into chair. I fell asleep and once awake I felt good still had trouble with walking and requird assistance to walk the problem began at 6a its 530p and still can't walk well.

Cheap and effective for me. I've been on it for 7 years. Once in a while, I have breakthrough acid reflux, but can usually attribute it to greasy foods and try to stay away from them. I have tried Prevacid, Omeprazole, et cetera, but this has been the best for me.

If one must use a drug this one is easy to take, has posed no side effects and certainly has been effective.

I wonder if dry cough, esp. at night, may be a side effect of this drug.

I have only been on this med for 2 days and I have noticed a big change already!! I possibly have a bleeding ulcer and my GP put me on this until I can go to the gastroentrologist next week. I'm still not allowed to eat fatty, oily, greasy, acidy foods or dairy, but this has made the sharp pain go away. I'm very impressed!

This medication has cleared up my indigestion. However, it has caused severe mood swings and depression.

I have had to use Famotidine to heal my esophagus and then maintenance dose. No sude effects. I have used the prescription drug and now use the over-the-counter pills. Good for long-term use.

I have been on this medication for many years now and it has always worked for me. My doctor has had to increase my dosage over the years from 20mg to 40mg but it still works. If I forget a dose, I know it with my first meal of the day!

I just got this medication and it is working wonderdfully I dont not have horrble stomach pains anymore and the bleeding has stopped

I am pregnant and all the way through I have suffered from extreme indigestion. My doctor prescribed it to me in my 5th month and it has helped sooo much.

I have uncontrollable itching, everywhere. I've had the itching for a month. Nothing is working and I am miserable. I was prescribed Famotidine & Vistaril. They make me dizzy and help some, but I am still scratching. HELP!!!!

Can eat what i want now
