Cimetidine
A first-generation H2 receptor antagonist that reduces gastric acid secretion by blocking histamine H2 receptors on parietal cells, used for peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and pathological hypersecretory conditions. It is a potent inhibitor of several cytochrome P450 enzymes, leading to clinically significant drug interactions with many medications. It has largely been superseded by proton pump inhibitors for most acid-reducing indications.

Irreversibly inhibits the hydrogen-potassium ATPase (proton pump) on the apical surface of gastric parietal cells. This blocks the final common pathway of gastric acid secretion, producing profound and sustained acid suppression.
