Sometimes it takes 45-60 minutes before i feel relief from acid when i take pepcid (famotidine) ac (10mg). is that normal to take so long?

Take Antacid..: Take antacid for immediate relief. Zantac/Pepcid/ Nexium (esomeprazole) for prevention of acidity. Get tested for H. Pylori and modify your diet and food habits also.
