What's the Best Time to Take Famotidine (Pepcid)?

I take famotidine I take it before I go to bed the time I take it is at 9pm you can take famotidine with or without food I am also on omeprazole for acid Reflux but I take that in the morning I have severe acid reflux I hate it my doctor is thinking about doing an endoscopy to see how much acid reflux build up I have and she might put me on something stronger

I take mine 1-2 times a day. My doctor suggests 1 hour before eating because I feel the acid reflux almost immediately after I eat most food.

I take it anytime of the day really. I don't know if it matters...it always works lol

I take it before bed, since lying down can often exacerbate reflux issues

Well for me I take famotidine every night before I go to bed my doctor told me to take it at night after I eat something

Yeah, I am sorta allergic to it bc of the mast cells but my old GI didn’t belive me. I am seeing a new one tomorrow. Hopefully it’s better the fifth time around.

I have mast cell issues and only take it twice a day, with breakfast and dinner (I can’t swallow pills lol) and must take it with Benadryl to prevent major side effects. The best way to take it is the way your dr prescribed. Hope this helps.

I like to take it after a BIG meal so either lunch or dinner. After I take it I feel full like the rest of the day, it’s great for weight loss! Hope this helped!
