Lostie - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
What changed? The Up & Up brand of Famotidine absolutely doesn’t work anymore. The pills are 100% ineffective. I checked the recent reviews just to see if maybe it’s just me, and nope! I see a whole bunch of other people are experiencing the same thing. This is a huge bummer. May as well be taking sugar pills for all the good this is doing me. I’m going to include a photo of the old bottle with the formula that actually worked. Please bring that back! 🙏🏻

PugMom - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
Love the price but something has definitely changed in how effective this is. I usually take 1-2 tablets depending on how bad my heartburn is but I noticed after several times of using this med, I literally felt no change in my heartburn. It’s almost like I’m taking a placebo!

Since the tablet changed it definitely doesn't work. I honestly wonder what this tablet is used for. Definitely not for acid/ heartburn. The other tablet worked great...why change it? I'm back to using Pepcid AC.

HUGE dislike!!! Product has definitely changed recently with packaging and pill shape/effectiveness. Been taking the other version for years without any issues, tried the new version today and it’s not helping at all. Definitely switching to another brand, very unfortunate for Target!

D Clifford - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
I have bought this acid reducer from Target for many years and it was always effective. Recently, the product disappeared from stores and then reappeared with different packaging and a different look for the actual pill. I didn't think much of it, until I started finding that it no longer works. As other reviews have stated, it's obvious the formula has changed. This once dependable product is not useless. I will be looking for something new that actually works. It's really upsetting.

The packaging and pill shape has recently changed and now I don't experience any heartburn relief as I did with the pill prior it's as if I'm taking a placebo, whatever changes that were made to the formula or quality of ingredients need to be reversed back to the old.

Starting to get old. Can’t eat spicy food like I used to sadly…. Hence this purchase. It does what it’s supposed to do and it does it well. I ran out the other day and definitely felt the difference. Immediately bought more for pickup at my nearby Target.
