About this product

What is Famotidine Compounded?

Famotidine Compounded is a prescription medication used in dogs to reduce the amount of stomach acid being produced. Although Famotidine is not FDA-approved for use in veterinary medicine, it is a commonly accepted practice for veterinarians to prescribe this medication for dogs. Compounding is beneficial in instances where a specific dosage is unavailable or in different forms to make it easier to dose your pet. Famotidine Compounded requires a prescription from your veterinarian.

Please Note:

Custom compounds add 2-3 business days to prepare and cannot be shipped to AK, AL, DC, DE, GU, HI, ID, KS, MS, MN, MT, NC, ND, OK, PR, SD, VI, VT, WV, or WY.

For:

Dogs

Benefits:

  • Useful in the treatment and prevention of gastric (stomach) and intestinal ulcers
  • Helps heal ulcers that are already present

How it Works:

Famotidine blocks H-2 receptors from secreting gastric acids into the stomach. Blocking these receptors prevents ulcers from forming and also helps present ulcers time to heal.

Cautions:

Famotidine should be used with caution in pets that are pregnant or pets with heart, kidney, or liver disease.
