What is Zantac 150

RanitidineThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryRanitidine is a medication used to reduce the amount of acid in the stomach. It is classified as an H2-receptor antagonist, which means it works by blocking histamine from increasing the acid production. Ranitidine is known by the brand name Zantac, and can be taken in the form of a tablet, injection, or effervescent tablet. This drug is commonly used to treat and prevent conditions caused by too much stomach acid, such as ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Effectiveness

How Zantac 150 Affects PatientsRanitidine works to reduce the amount of acid created in the stomach, whether it is due to food or other drugs. It is often used to treat Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a condition that causes too much stomach acid. After taking ranitidine, endoscopic imaging has shown that the tissue in the esophagus has improved.
How Zantac 150 works in the bodyRanitidine works by blocking histamine receptors in the stomach, which helps reduce the production of stomach acid. It only takes about an hour for it to start working, and it can provide relief for up to 10 hours.

Zantac 150 for Condition in which Stomach Acid is Pushed Into the Esophagus
This medication has been great for controlling my acid reflux. I was originally put on it due to stress from work and life, but it's helped me out a lot. There are occasional times when it doesn't work as well as I'd like, but it's still better than nothing.
