ZANTAC (Ranitidine): Treats Heartburn, Stomach Ulcers, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), and Conditions That Causes Too Much Stomach Acid (such as Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome)

“Although, your health condition may impact your everyday life, do not let it define who you are.”

ZANTAC (Ranitidine) is used to treat ulcers; gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition in which backward flow of acid from the stomach causes heartburn and injury of the food pipe (esophagus); and conditions where the stomach produces too much acid, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Over-the-counter ranitidine is used to prevent and treat symptoms of heartburn associated with acid indigestion and sour stomach. Ranitidine is in a class of medications called H2 blockers. It decreases the amount of acid made in the stomach. Other uses for this medicine: Ranitidine is also used sometimes to treat upper gastrointestinal bleeding and to prevent stress ulcers, stomach damage from use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and aspiration of stomach acid during anesthesia. Talk to your doctor about the risks of using this medication for your condition.
