Famotidine, a competitive histamine H2-receptor antagonist, is used to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as gastric or duodenal ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and pathological hypersecretory conditions. Famotidine inhibits many of the isoenzymes of the hepatic CYP450 enzyme system. Other actions of Famotidine include an increase in gastric bacterial flora such as nitrate-reducing organisms. Famotidine binds competitively to H2-receptors located on the basolateral membrane of the parietal cell, blocking histamine affects. This competitive inhibition results in reduced basal and nocturnal gastric acid secretion and a reduction in gastric volume, acidity, and amount of gastric acid released in response to stimuli including food, caffeine, insulin, betazole, or pentagastrin.

Targets:
Nizatidine, chemically N-[2-[[[2- [(dimethylamino)methyl]-4-thiazolyl]methyl]thio]ethyl]-N’ -methyl-2-nitro-1,1-ethenediamine, is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist.
Nizatidine reduced gastric acid secretion for up to 8 h suggesting that this compound could be used in with a once or twice daily dosage regime. Nizatidine was rapidly and well-absorbed orally, was widely distributed in tissues and the majority of the dose was excreted in the urine within 24 h. Nizatidine is indicated for duodenal and gastric ulcer as well as for the treatment of endoscopically diagnosed esophagitis, including erosive and ulcerative esophagitis, and associated heartburn due to gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Conditions:
Ranitidine, a histamine H2-receptor antagonist, is now well established as a potent inhibitor of gastric acid secretion effective in the treatment and prophylaxis of gastrointestinal lesions aggravated by gastric acid secretion.
