Cimetidine is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist. Chemically it is N?-cyano-N-methyl N'-[2-[[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]thio]-ethyl]-guanidine.

The empirical formula for cimetidine is C10H16N6S and for cimetidine hydrochloride, C10H16N6SHCl these represent molecular weights of 252.34 and 288.80, respectively.

Cimetidine is rapidly absorbed after oral administration and peak levels occur in 45 to 90 minutes. The half-life of Cimetidine is approximately 2 hours. Both oral and parenteral (I.V. or I.M.) administration provide comparable periods of therapeutically effective blood levels blood concentrations remain above that required to provide 80% inhibition of basal gastric acid secretion for 4 to 5 hours following a dose of 300 mg.
