Can famotadine help with sour stomach and esophagus

1 answer

Famotidine is an antihistamine that is commonly used to reduce stomach acid production. It belongs to a class of medications known as H2 blockers. Famotidine can be helpful for conditions related to excessive stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and sour stomach (dyspepsia).

If you are experiencing symptoms like heartburn, acid reflux, or a "sour stomach," famotidine may provide relief by reducing the amount of acid your stomach produces, which can help lessen irritation in the esophagus and stomach lining.

However, it's important to talk to a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and to discuss appropriate treatment options. Self-medication is not advisable, especially if symptoms persist or worsen. Your healthcare provider may recommend famotidine or an alternative treatment based on your specific condition.
