Other molecules FDA puts in Histamine-2 Receptor Antagonist, with whether each is in shortage right now. Same class is not the same drug — substitution is a clinical decision, and this is a supply picture, not a recommendation.

Common questions

Is Famotidine in shortage right now?
No. FDA does not currently list Famotidine in shortage. This page is rebuilt every morning from FDA's shortage database, so a new posting appears here the day it is published.
Who makes Famotidine?
166 companies have marketed Famotidine in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
What does Famotidine cost?
The typical pharmacy pays about $0.0494 per unit, based on the most recent CMS NADAC survey of actual acquisition costs. That is what the pharmacy pays for the drug itself — not the cash price, and not what an insurer is billed.
