Famotidine activates the vagus nerve inflammatory reflex to attenuate cytokine storm

2022-04-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background.</bold> Severe COVID-19 is characterized by pro-inflammatory cytokine release syndrome (cytokine storm) which causes high morbidity and mortality. Recent observational and clinical studies suggest famotidine, a histamine 2 receptor (H2R) antagonist widely used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease , attenuates the clinical course of COVID-19. Because evidence is lack...
