Nizatidine was patented in 1980 and approved for medical use in 1987.[4] It was approved in the United States in 1988.[1] It is available as a generic medication and over the counter.[2] In the United Kingdom a month of medication costs the NHS about £18 as of 2021.[2] In the United States this costs about 20 USD.[5]
