Instructions for use. Quamatel Analogs and price contraindications for use

Most frequent complications from side digestive tractfound in the practice of a gastroenterologist's doctor, are erosive-ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract and associated with this internal bleeding. Rhythmic life rhythm is a source of mass of all kinds of stressful factors, which, in turn, stimulate the release of corticosteroids, adrenocorticotropic hormone, histamine, catecholamines. This biochemical cocktail in excessive amounts does not carry anything good in itself, stimulating the hypersection of hydrochloric acid and pepsin, shifting the pH into the acidic side and reducing the protective potential of the stomach mucosa. In such cases, the need to prevent such situations to the fore, where its main tool is medical therapy Preparations that reduce the acidity of the stomach. Being blocker histamine receptors third generation original preparation Quamatel (MNN - Famotidine) from the Hungarian Pharmaceutical Plant "Gideon Richter" on the right occupies one of the prominent places in the list of anti-sized drugs.

The main therapeutically significant pharmacological effect Quamatel is suppressing the secretion of gastric juice both in a quantitative (secretion volume) and in a qualitative (hydrochloric acid concentration) of expression. In addition, the drug strengthens the "protective bastions" of the gastric mucosa by activating blood flow in it, increasing the production of bicarbonate salts, activation of the recovery of the epithelium.

The popularity of quamatels among specialists and patients is related to the lack of a number of shortcomings in its predecessors, plus the presence of several undeniable advantages in its "personal case" of several indisputable advantages actively announcing the manufacturer. So, the effective dose of this drug - 40 mg is significantly less than that of ranitidine and cimetidine. And the duration of action is greater (10-12 hours against 7-8 hours in ranitidine and 5-6 hours at cimetidine). Among the others positive qualities Quamatel - Minimum Quantity side Effects, the probability of the appearance of which does not exceed 1%. The drug does not interfere with the work of the liver and male sex glands, does not cause gynecomastia, does not increase bioavailability alcoholic beverages (Therefore, it can be used in persons abusing alcohol).

Quamatel produced in two dosage forms: Tablets and lyophilisate for the preparation of a solution for intravenous (exclusively intravenous!) Introduction. Availability injection form You can also record the advantages of the quamatel. The drug quickly relieves pain when acute attacks peptic disease Stomach and 12 pans. For oral reception Quamatels in a daily dose of 40 mg pain is bought within 7 days in 66% of patients. When injecting 20 mg 2 times a day, the disappearance of pain syndrome can be expected already on 3-4 day therapy.

An important condition for the prescription of the quamatel is a preliminary study of the digestive tract for the absence of malignant neoplasms.

Pharmacology

Gistamine H 2-receptor blocker. Reduces basal and stimulated with gastrine, pentagastrine, betazole, caffeine, histamine, acetylcholine and physiological vagus reflex secretion of hydrochloric acid. At the same time, the pH increases and the activity of pepsin is reduced. Practically does not affect the levels of gastroy on an empty stomach and after meals. Does not affect the motility of the stomach, the exocrine activity of the pancreas, blood circulation in the portal system, at the levels of hormones, does not have antidrogenic action.

Famotidine poorly affects liver microsomal enzymes.

After taking the drug inside the action occurs after 1 hour, the maximum of action - after 3 hours after taking, the duration of the effect ranges from 12-24 hours, depending on the dose.

special instructions

The use of the quamatel may disguise the symptoms of the stomach cancer, therefore, before proceeding with the treatment of Famotidin, it is necessary to eliminate the presence of a malignant neoplasm.

With a sharp discontinuation of the treatment, Famotidin may cause cancellation syndrome, so treatment is stopped, gradually reducing its dose.

Patients with violations of the liver function Kvamatel ® should be prescribed with caution and lower doses.

With long-term treatment of weakened patients or patients under stress conditions, bacterial gastric lesions are possible with the further spread of infection.

Quamatel ® should be taken 2 hours after receiving antenzola or ketoconazole in order to avoid a significant reduction in their suction. 1-2 hour break between the quamatel and antacids reception should also be observed.

Gistamine H 2 Blockers -receptors (including quamatel ®) may inhibit the acid-containing effect of pentagastrine and histamine, so 24 hours before the test, it should be refused the quamatel destination.

Gistamine H 2 blockers are receptors can suppress the skin reaction to histamine, thus leading to false negative results. Therefore, before conducting diagnostic skin samples to detect an allergic skin reaction of an immediate type of quamatel ®, you should cancel.

During treatment, the use of food, beverages and other drugs can be used, which can cause irritation of the stomach mucosa.

Impact on the ability to driving vehicles and control mechanisms

During the reception of the drug quamatel ® patients, caution should be taken when controlling vehicles and classes with potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Pharmacological properties

Famotidine is a powerful competitive inhibitor of H2-histamine receptors. The main clinically significant pharmacological effect of Famotidine is to inhibit gastric secretion. Famotidine reduces both the acid concentration and the volume of gastric secretion, while the production of pepsin remains proportional to the volume of the selected gastric juice.

Both healthy volunteers and in patients with hypersection, Famotidin inhibits both basal and night and stimulated by pentagastrine, betazole, caffeine, insulin, or physiological vagal dephlex secretion.

The duration of inhibition of secretion when applying doses 20 and 40 mg is 10-12 hours.

One-time oral administration of doses of 20 and 40 mg in the evening ensures inhibition of basal and night secretion of hydrochloric acid.

Famotidin practically does not affect the level of gastroin on an empty stomach or after meals.

Famotidine does not affect the emptying of the stomach, the exocrine function of the pancreas, the blood flow in the liver and the portal system.

Famotidin does not affect the enzyme system of cytochrome P450 liver.

The antagandogenic effect of the drug is not marked. The level of plasma hormones after treatment with Famotidine has not changed.

Indications

Benign stomach ulcer. Duodenal ulcer. The states of hypersecretion, Zolinger - Ellison syndrome. Treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. Prevention of aspiration of acidic gastric content (Mendelssohn syndrome) during general anesthesia.

Contraindications

Increased sensitivity to any component of the drug and other antagonists of H2-histamine receptors; Children's age, period of pregnancy and breastfeeding (due to lack of necessary clinical experience).

Application in pregnancy and breastfeeding

Khamatel is contraindicated to women at the stage of battery and lactation.

Method of application and dose

Quamatel in tablets is designed for oral administration. The recording and duration of the treatment is selected by the doctor individually, taking into account clinical indicators. When the ulcer of the duodenal and the gastric ulcer and the stomach, the press is taken by PO 40 mg times in Cyti and preferably in the evening, or Po 20 mg twice in the war. If necessary, the drug may be used to 160 mg. The duration of treatment can vary from 4 to 8 weeks.

To prevent the development of the development of ulcerative disease, Zhewyka drug should be filled with 20 mg one of the day per day.

The lyophilisate for the preparation of the solution is intended for intravenous drip or inkjet administration solely in the hospital. The drug is used to treat severe forms of the disease or if it is impossible to receive quamatel in oral form. Before administration, the contents of the vial are divorced in 5 or 10 ml of solvent.

Side effects

The quamatel treatment may be accompanied by the development of nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, violation of the chair, the meteorism, dryness of the mucous membrane, emotional lability, increased anxiety, hallucinations, violation of cardiac rhythm, dizziness, increasing body temperature and muscle gain.

Interaction with other drugs

Suction of certain drugs (for example ketoconazole, amoxicillin, iron preparations) depends on the acidity of the gastric juice. Therefore, Famotidin must be used at least 2 hours after receiving such medicines.

Simultaneous use with other H2 receptor antagonists can significantly reduce the effectiveness of Tolazolin. Although there are no confirmed interactions between the Famotidine and Tolazolin, the likelihood of their existence is high enough, so the effect of Tolazoline should be determined at the beginning and after the completion of the concomitant treatment. In the event of a reduction in the effect of Tolazolina, the dose should be gradually raised or stopped with Famotidin.

Food and antacids do not have a significant impact on Famotidin treatment.

Famotidin does not affect the hepatic system of cytochrome P450 oxidase, therefore the metabolism of oral anticoagulants, antiprin, amineopyrin, theophylline, phenyotine, diazepam, ethanol and propranolol remains unchanged.

Sampleclip can slow down the release of Famotidine.

Overdose

With the use of Famotidine during the year at a dose of 800 mg / day in patients with hypersecretions of the gastric juice, severe side effects are not revealed.

Symptoms: vomiting, motor arousal, tremor, decreased blood pressure, tachycardia, ventricular arrhythmia and collapse can develop.

Treatment: symptomatic and supporting therapy is used if necessary - in the introduction of diazepam in case of convulsion, atropine during bradycardia and lidocaine in the case of ventricular arrhythmia. Hemodialysis is effective. Observation of the patient's condition.

Storage conditions

Shelf life

Quamatel - RLS tablets, which is used in gastroenterology. It is not possible to purchase it independently. To buy a patient, you need to receive a recipe for a doctor, as well as to get acquainted with the instructions.

  • Quamatel 40 - contain, respectively, 40 mg of medication;
  • Quamatel ampoules - 20 mg in each bottle.

The active substance of the drug is Famotidin. It contributes to the locking of histamine receptors located on the surface of the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines. Thus, the quamatel medicine reduces the extraction of hydrochloric acid, which disrupts the digestion and damages the walls of the gastric path. A non-proprietary pharmotidine drug also reduces the negative effect of pepsin.

The medicine is prescribed also because it does not affect the stomach motor. The natural work of the stomach allows you to move food to the intestines in time. Treatment helps to reduce acidity, at the same time without affecting the pancreas enzymes, liver and human hormonal background.

  • gastroduodenitis erosive form;
  • reflux;
  • syndromes Zolinger Ellison or Mendelssohn;
  • prevention of bleeding from the upper digestive systems;
  • dyspeptic disorders arising due to increased acidity.
