Famonext 40 Tablet is used for the following:

Here's how you should take Famonext 40 Tablet:

• Adhere to the dietary recommendations given by your doctor.

Famonext 40 Tablet is taken orally.

Famonext 40 Tablet contains famotidine (40 mg). Here's how it works:

• H2 Receptor Antagonist: Famotidine acts as an antagonist at the H2 receptors in your stomach. These receptors are typically involved in stimulating acid production.

• Blocking Histamine Action: By acting against these receptors, famotidine blocks the action of histamine – a compound that would normally trigger acid secretion in the stomach.

• Reducing Stomach Acidity: With histamine's action blocked, there's a significant reduction in acid secretion from the stomach cells. This helps alleviate symptoms and gives any damaged tissue in your stomach or oesophagus a chance to heal.

• Always keep the Famonext 40 Tablet in a tightly closed container.

• Ensure the storage temperature is below 30°C.

• Store the medicine away from light and moisture to prevent any damage.

• Keep the Famonext 40 Tablet out of reach of children.

• Don't forget to check the expiry date before consuming the tablet. Use it before it expires.

• If you're dealing with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), heartburn, or peptic ulcers, try to avoid spicy and oily foods. These types of food can increase stomach acidity and worsen your symptoms.

• Regular light exercise such as walking can also help manage these conditions by reducing stress, which is often a contributing factor to increased stomach acid production.
