Topcid-40 Tablet is used to treat conditions caused by excess stomach acid, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), heartburn and acid indigestion, and to treat or prevent peptic ulcers in the stomach and duodenum. It contains famotidine, an H2-receptor antagonist that reduces the amount of acid produced by the stomach.
Take the tablet with or without food, as prescribed; taking it before bedtime or before meals may help depending on your condition. Continue taking it for the full course prescribed, even if your symptoms improve early, to allow the stomach lining to heal completely.
Avoiding spicy or fatty foods, caffeine and smoking can help improve symptom control. Eating smaller meals and avoiding lying down straight after eating may also reduce discomfort from acid reflux.
Tell your doctor if you have any kidney or liver conditions, or if you are taking other acid-reducing medicines, before starting this tablet. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Contact your doctor if your symptoms do not improve or if you notice black stools or persistent vomiting.
