POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Quamatel injection is for hospital use only, and in patients who may
not take oral medications.
Quamatel tablets should be administered instead of the injection as
soon as possible.
The recommended dose of Quamatel injection is 20 mg IV twice daily
(every 12 hours).
In Zollinger-Ellison syndrome:
The initial dose is 20 mg IV, every 6 hours, which may be increased
depending on the amount of
secreted gastric acid and the clinical condition of the patient.
In general anaesthesia for the prevention of acid aspiration:
20 mg IV in the morning of the day of the surgery, or at least 2 hours
before the surgery.
The single IV dose cannot be higher than 20 mg.
In renal insufficiency:
Since famotidine is excreted primarily via the kidneys, caution should
be observed in patients with
severe renal impairment.
If creatinine clearance is < 30 mL/min and serum creatinine is >3
mg/100 mL, the daily dose should
be reduced to 20 mg or the intervals between doses should be increased
to 36-48 hours.
