Main article: H2-receptor antagonist

Certain preparations of nizatidine are now available over the counter in various countries including the United States. Nizatidine has been used experimentally to control weight gain associated with some antipsychotic medication. [1]

History and development

Nizatidine was developed by Eli Lilly, and was first marketed in 1987. It is considered to be equipotent with ranitidine and differs by the substitution of a thiazole-ring in place of the furan-ring in ranitidine. In September 2000 Eli Lilly announced they would sell the sales and marketing rights for Axid to Reliant Pharmaceuticals. [2] Subsequently, Reliant developed the oral solution of Axid, marketing this in 2004, after gaining approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). [3] However, a year later they sold rights of the Axid Oral Solution (including the issued patent US6,930,119 protecting the product) to Braintree Laboratories.[4]

Nizatidine proved to be the last new histamine H2-receptor antagonist introduced prior to the advent of proton pump inhibitors.Not available OTC as inhibits metabolism of Warfarin.
