Cimetidine was the prototypical histamine H 2 receptor antagonist from which later drugs were developed. Cimetidine was the culmination of a project at Smith, Kline & French (SK&F; now GlaxoSmithKline) by James W. Black, C. Robin Ganellin, and others to develop a histamine receptor antagonist that would suppress stomach acid secretion.
H 2 receptor H2 Receptors: Found mainly in the stomach lining (parietal cells), H2 receptors regulate gastric acid secretion by stimulating the production of hydrochloric acid. H2 antagonists (H2 blockers) are used to reduce stomach acid production and treat conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcers. [3]
The H 2 receptor antagonists are a class of drugs used to block the action of histamine on parietal cells in the stomach, decreasing the production of acid by these cells. H 2 antagonists are used in the treatment of dyspepsia, although they have been surpassed in popularity by the more effective [1] proton pump inhibitors.
Cimetidine, sold under the brand name Tagamet among others, is a histamine H 2 receptor antagonist that inhibits stomach acid production. [1] [9] [10] It is mainly used in the treatment of heartburn and peptic ulcers.
