Ranitidine Forums (Page 2)

I'm on probation and I was using k2 but I quit and had been clean for 5 days; after I quit I was taking zantac to help with the withdraws when I went in to take a urine test and I came up positive for methamphetamines. My po came by later and said he knew I was using k2 cause he seen it happen before so I thought that my s*** had been laced. To make a long story short it was the f***in zantac that made me come up but I had already admitted to using, so know I'm on house arrest, have to take more drug classes and I'm gonna be on probation longer. DONT TAKE ZANTAC IF ON PROBATION ## How long does ranitidine give a false positive on a probation drug test for the department of corrections? ## Be very careful with Ranitidine if you are on probation or take drug panels!!! I had an...

After using this, will there be any side effects in pregnancy? ## Hello Mam, Congrats on your pregnancy. If you are apprehensive about this tablet, I think you should take a second opinion. Don't be scared to talk to another doctor. And in my opinion, if your doc has prescribed this then it should be safe. :) But finally, you should be comfortable, so maybe a second opinion would be best. Best o' luck. ## Hi Ann - Congrats on your pregnancy and hope that you are doing well. Aciloc (Ranitidine) is in pregnancy category B in the United States, meaning that it is considered generally safe. I assume you were prescribed this for some acid reflux (heartburn) during the pregnancy? Like NJ said, if you truly feel concerned it would not hurt to get a 2nd opinion. If you experience troubl...

I found this in my grandma's purse. I cant find any other meds of hers that look like this. Please help. ## Hello, Leele! How are you? I think the imprint you're looking at is actually intended to be R 150, it is an over the counter medication that contains 150mgs of Ranitidine, which is an antacid. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain. Has she ever taken such a medication? ## Thank you for caring, it really means alot. I've asked on other sites and no one has replied. And thank you for correcting the # on this pill. I asked had she been taking these. She has never seen it before. She gets prilosec from her doctor. So we are both worried that someone went in her purse, cuz how would that have even got the...

My girlfriend has been taking this drug for a year and has been watching what she eat and excercising but still gaining weight, she never had this problem until she started using ranitidine 150mg ## i want to know if ranitidine can make a person to gain weight and does it have a side effect ## I have been taking ranitidine 150 for about six months. I have gained 18 lbs during this time even though I have not changed my eating habits. I have high cholesterol and have to watch my diet. ## Rantidine is an antacid that's used to treat or prevent conditions such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis.

allergy to sulfur and need a list of sulfur based antibiotics. Doctors keep giving them to me. ## small beige pill with the nuber 75 on one side - it has a funny shape to it. ## There is really no comprehensive list, especially since some many contain an inactive ingredient that is sulfur based. Your best bet is to just make your pharmacist aware of your allergy, so they can screen the prescriptions for you, when you get them filled. ## Tammy, that tablet contains 75mgs of Ranitidine, a generic for Zantac. This is used primarily to treat heartburn. ## Try Pure sulfur to verify if you actually have an allergy to Sulfur..... Not the Pharma version. Allergies generally are from the processing of material to be able to SELL... Do your research... Chances are you do not have an allergy to Su...

I have to take zantac150 and i have random drug test at work and ive heard it will make you fail a drug test. I was just concerned. And need to know ASAP! ## It is not a common occurence, but yes, the Ranitidine, which is the active ingredient in Zantac can cause a false positive for Amphetamines, it really depends on the reliability of the test. It might be a good idea to let them know that you are taking it, just in case. Are there any other questions or comments? ## Will citalopram or Zantac make you fail pee test for meth

can i take ranitidine and ecospirin simultaneously ## Yes, as a matter of fact, in the U.S. they are often prescribed together to help prevent the stomach damage and acidity that the Ecosprin (Aspirin) might cause as side effects, according to the NIH. Other side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach pain. Has your doctor prescribed both of these medications? It is always best to check with them, before taking anything.

I am current on felony probation and had to take a UA yesterday. The only medication I have taken recently was an off brand OTC allergy medicine and an OTC heartburn medicine that was Ranitidine (HCL).

I take another test Monday and if I fail it again I get violated. HELP

I am patient of Hypertension. Along with other medicines like olemsar 20, my physician prescribed pantocid 20. I take pantocid occasionally. Now a days I am feeling no effect of pantocid regarding gastric problem. Should I discontinue pantocid? suggest other alternative medicine as i feel lots of gases in my stomach. ## take ranitidine ## Pantocid contains the active ingredient Pantoprazole, it is a proton pump inhibitor that is used to treat or prevent conditions such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis. First of all, these medications really work better for this problems, if they are taken regularly. Occasional use is not going to do much to help if you have acid damage, such as that caused by one of the conditions I mentioned above. And if you are just taking it to help with gas...

Can this cause a false positive for methamphetamine on a urine test? A friend of mine had a urine test and it showed methamphetamine in it. They do not take methamphetamine. ## YES. It has repeatedly happened to me bc of the amount of Zantac I was taking for stomach issues. Have them call the makers of Zantac and ask for a nurse. Make sure they record it, bc they say that they can't give any information to consumers, but can to a dr. They said to me on the phone that it does, so that is why u need to record.

I am taking 300mg twice a day since last 5 years. What can be the harm done to my body du to this. ## Have you consulted your doctor? Aciloc contains the active ingredient Ranitidine, it is used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, to treat or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and Gastritis. I'm not really finding a lot of information on such long-term use of it, because it's generally recommended that these only be used for time periods ranging from 2 weeks to a few months. Therefore, the safety of long-term use hasn't really been scrutinized. ## hi my wife is 22 y old. and doctor is given aciloc 150, rablet D and calbovic plus for 15 days, but she is suffering with loos motion. it is happen with this tables.. ## Sir iam taking acilok150 m...

This is the number to the company that makes Zantac: 1-203-798-9988. Demand to talk to the company nurse. She told me three times yes Zantac causes methamphetamine to show up in your system now. Now get up off your bursts and fight back. Go to your local pharmacies and demand that they put it back behind the counter where it belongs. Make signs, let people know!
