Description:
Famotidine is a medication usually used to reduce stomach acid and treat heartburn, but it has gained interest in Long COVID because of its effects on histamine and the immune system. Some people with Long COVID, especially those with mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)–like symptoms such as flushing, rashes, or brain fog, may find it helpful. Early studies and patient reports suggest it could ease fatigue, cognitive issues, or allergy-type symptoms, though strong clinical trial evidence is still lacking. It is generally safe and well tolerated, with side effects like headache, dizziness, or stomach upset in some people. Famotidine is not a cure, but it may be used as part of supportive care for Long COVID when MCAS is suspected.
