Cimetidine is available by prescription only. Cimetidine is an anti-ulcer drug. Cimetidine is used to treat a variety of problems associated with the stomach and intestinal tract that include stomach and intestinal ulcers, stomach inflammation, or acid reflux. Like other histamine receptor-2 blockers, cimetidine decreases the acid content in the stomach to provide a more favorable stomach pH. Cimetidine is prescribed by veterinarians as an extra-label drug.
