Hello,

I'm having a hard time finding any information about a medicine by the name of "Metadine". Are you referring to Cimetidine perhaps?

Based on my research, Cimetidine is widely used in the treatment of heartburn and peptic ulcers and belongs to a class of medications called histamine H2-antagonists.

Histamine is a natural chemical that stimulates stomach cells to produce acid. Histamine H2-antagonists inhibit the action of histamine on the acid-producing cells of the stomach and reduce stomach acid. Cimetidine was approved by the FDA in 1977.

Please post back if you have any more questions and Ill be happy to assist you!
