Dosage and AdministrationDuodenal Ulcer:Initial Therapy: The recommended dose of famotidine is one 40mg tablet daily taken at night. Treatment should be given for four to eight weeks, but the duration of treatment may be shortened if endoscopy reveals that the ulcer has healed. In most cases of duodenal ulcer, healing occurs within four weeks on this regimen. In those patients whose ulcers have not healed completely after four weeks, treatment should be continued for a further four week period.Maintenance Therapy: For the prevention of recurrence of duodenal ulceration, it is recommended that therapy with famotidine be continued with a dose of one 20mg tablet daily taken at night.Benign Gastric Ulcer:The recommended dose of famotidine is one 40mg tablet daily taken at night. Treatment should be given for 4-8 weeks, but the duration of treatment may be shortened if endoscopy reveals that the ulcer has healed.Maintenance Therapy: For the prevention of recurrence of benign gastric ulcer, the recommended dosage is one 20mg tablet taken at night which may be given for up to one year.Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome:Patients without prior antisecretory therapy should be started on a dose of 20mg every 6 hours. Dosage should be adjusted to individual patient needs and should continue for as long as indicated clinically. Doses up to 800mg daily have been used for up to one year without the development of significant adverse effects or tachyphylaxis. Patients who have been receiving another H2-antagonist may be switched directly to famotidine at a starting dose higher than that recommended for new cases; this starting dose will depend on the severity of the condition and the last dose of the H2-antagonist previously used.Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease:The recommended dosage for the symptomatic relief of gastroesophageal reflux disease is 20mg of famotidine twice daily.For the treatment of oesophageal erosion or ulceration associated with GERD, the recommended dosage is 40mg of famotidine twice daily.Maintenance Therapy: For the prevention of recurrence of symptoms and erosions or ulcerations associated with GERD the recommended dosage is 20mg of famotidine twice daily.Dosage Adjustment for Patients with Severe Renal Insufficiency:In adult patients with moderate (creatinine clearance <50mL/min) or severe (creatinine clearance <10mL/min) renal insufficiency, the elimination half-life of famotidine is increased. For patients with severe renal insufficiency it may exceed 20 hours, reaching approximately 24 hours in anuric patients. Since CNS adverse effects have been reported in patients with moderate and severe renal insufficiency, to avoid excess accumulation of the medicine in patients with moderate and severe renal insufficiency, the dose of famotidine may be reduced to half the dose or the dosing interval may be prolonged to 36-48 hours as indicated by the patient's clinical response

About Online Pharmacy:
Quality RX is a well established pharmaceutical supply company with experience in delivering high quality, low cost pharmaceuticals to a worldwide market. They offer one of the largest and most diverse product ranges available on-line. With a 24 hour turnaround from orders recieved to despatch, they can offer a very reliable, confidential and cost effective service to their clients. They have a number of reliable manufacturers and wholesalers around the world that provide them with quality generic and name brand pharmaceuticals. Their aim is simple. To offer their clients the best service and the lowest possible price. You do not need a prescription to buy their products as they work under the laws of the country they ship from. They do recommend you check with your local customs to see if it is okay to import these products. For all their products they recommend you seek medical advice before use. They do not offer consultations in any form.
All drugs that they offer on their site are in their generic form, and listed by their brand name. Every drug in existence is given a generic name upon its creation. The most popular and mass marketed drugs are then given a copyright brand or trade name for sales purposes. This is very similar to the way actors use a stage name. Just as the actor is one person with two names, these drugs are one chemical with two names. Stage names and brand names serve the same purpose, for the public to identify and easily remember the specific drug. The drugs supplied by Quality RX are manufactured in India, home to an enormous pharmaceutical industry, largely owned and operated by US drug companies. Under international law, Indian patent law allows scientists to reverse-engineer the active molecule of brand name drugs using a different process than the original patent, thereby allowing these manufacturers to obtain a process patent of their own. These drugs, legally made and patented in India without huge development and advertising costs, can be sold legally worldwide, at a fraction of the cost of the name brand they duplicate. That is why Quality RX can offer their low prices. As a result, India has become the largest producer of generic drugs in the world, with a quality that meets all health and medical standards. Their pills and caps are factory machine sealed in bubble packaging, untouched by human hands. They accept both Visa Card and Mastercard as a form of payment. They apologise for any inconvenience caused by not offering more payment solutions.
