Pathway Description
Lafutidine H2 Anti-Histamine Action Pathway
Homo sapiens
Drug Action Pathway
Lafutidine (also known as INN) is a second generation histamine H2 receptor antagonist that can be used for treating ulcers and reflux. Inhibition of histamine H2 receptor can inhibit histamine-stimulated gastric acid secretion which will lead to reduced gastric volume and acidity.
