Ranitidine 150 Mg

Is ranitidine still safe to take after the expiration/discard date? Mine is 10/10/12. ## Hello, Linda! How are you? Most medications, such as Ranitidine, don't get dangerous when expired, but they do begin to lose efficacy after that point. Thus, the older they are, the less they are going to work. Learn more Ranitidine details here. It would really be best to just dispose of the expired and purchase new. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## I was on omeprazole for about 2 and a half years, and on Rapeprazole for 10 years for acid reflux. My last endoscopy revealed fundic polyps so I stopped taking the omeprazole and my GP put me on Ranitidine 150mg x2 daily. Have been taking them for for 5 days now. It doesn't suppress the acid as well as the omeprazole do and on top o...

I just wanted to know if there were any recalls for ranitidine 150 mg (IP 253) for 2017? ## There was a recall for the syrup manufactured by Actavis, but that is all I have found for this year, so far, according to the FDA recall list. Have you experienced some problem with this medication? The FDA warns that this medication may carry the risk of causing side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, and flatulence. ## Has Kroger recalled its Kroger Heartburn Relief 150 mg Ranitidine with a National Drug Code of 30142-600-01? ## Has Avkare NCD (ndc 42291-724-60) Ranitidine 150mg tablets marked IP 150 been recalled?

I was prescribed Ranitidine 150 mg manufactured by Amneal. Is it gluten free? I've been having stomach pain since I started it. ## I have to break Amneal 300 mg tabs in half and my throat gets sore. I have been told by the pharmacist and the doctor this is fine to do. May I say how dare BCBS limit me to 90 days only per year of Protonix because it costs more; sure I could appeal it. Since I never had any real problems with Ranitidine before taking Ameal Ranitidine, and seeing it when it turns bad makes me wonder about the company? ## Hello, Reed! How are you? What are the markings on the tablets you are taking? Can you please post back and clarify? That is what would enable me to research this information for you. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, ...

could be older wockhardt/ ranbaxy.need to find out if these are really what they are labeled.are they ranitidine ? ## Yes, these tablets contain 150mgs of Ranitidine, the active ingredient in Zantac, I even have a couple of sample packages that my pharmacist gave me that have this exact pill in them. I use Pepcid/Famotidine and to get them on the $4 list, which is a lot cheaper than the over the counter price for the amount I take, I had to wait for my pharmacy to order them in for me. So, he gave me several of these to use in the meantime. Ranitidine is a histamine H2 receptor agonist that is used to inhibit stomach acid production, to treat conditions such as heartburn, GERD and gastritis. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness and stomach pain. Learn more: Are there any ...

Hi. My daughter has dental surgery tomorrow and her Dr now says she needs to take Pepcid ac or similar "acid blocker" the night before. This surgery was scheduled with no warning. Now with blizzard its dangerous to go out. We have ranitidine 150 mg exp Jan 2012, its now Feb 2014. Is it still effective? Should she take two (300 mg)? There's no way to get fresh OTC meds. We have TUMS that is still good. Thanks! ## I accidentally or say foolishly gave my 3 yr old daughter expired ranitidine syrup as 3 does of 4 ml each. She is having severe stomach pain n bloody mucusy stool from before and I think it worsened it. What to do? Is it severe?

I use ranitidine 150 mg on a daily basis. As of Thursday June 16 2011 my doctor prescribed sulfamethoxazole tmp ds tab. Now two days later I awake to my body shaking and feeling clamy, also nausea and dizzy. ## There are no interactions listed for using both of these medications at the same time. However, the symptoms you described could be side effects of the Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim, which is an antibiotic commonly prescribed in the U.S. under the brand name Bactrim. Additionally, they could be caused by the infection that is being treated with this medication. Have you consulted your doctor? Since the Ranitidine is used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, to treat or prevent conditions like heartburn and ulcers, it can affect the proper absorption of some ...

Ranitidine 150 mg tablet. I have always received a peach colored tablet w/imprint PAR 544. Concerned about white tablet is for Zantac? I take this w/Metoprolol. ## my husband gets white ones and sometimes peach ones ## Just to confirm, yes, the APO pill is also Ranitidine 150mgs, a generic for Zantac. Tiffanie, I appreciate your response, but if you are going to post to help people on a drug forum, then you need to know that the colors of the tablets really don't mean anything at all, you have to go by the imprint in order to be certain of what something is.

I'm feeling pain in my right leg's toe and the doctor prescribed me RANTAC 150. What is the use of this related to pain? This medicine is prescribed along with two other tablets i.e. Tendocare & Dictat. Please suggest, how much Rantac 150 is safe to take. ## The Rantac actually isn't intended to treat the pain you're experiencing, it's intended to prevent side effects that the other medications can cause. Rantac contains the active ingredient Ranitidine, which is an antacid, so it can help protect your stomach against irritation and other substances that may cause conditions such as ulcers, GERD and heartburn. You can learn more details on Rantac here. The Dictat that you have been prescribed contains Paracetamol and Aceclofenac and, since the latter is a nonster...

I found this round peach colored pill (not scored) that looks like an R 750. I do not see anything on the back as it is old and worn down. I was on heartburn meds a year ago. ## There is a tablet with the marking of R150 that matches this description. It is manufactured by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories and they list it as containing 150mgs of Ranitidine, which is used to treat, or prevent heartburn, gastritis, and ulcers. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Trying to identify pill; small, oval, peach, Z on one side, other side says 25 mg

I recently was switched from 15mg IR to 7.5m gIR, I also take one 15mg CR every 12 hours. I neglegted to ask how much of a difference the 7. would be as opposed to the 15mg IR. I have fibromyalgia, costrocondritus, neck and back anomlies, fractured S1/T2 and the sacrum is cracked. The discs in between; one bulging, one flat and leaking into the siatic nerve. I also have panic disorder (take 5mg Diazepam 3x per bid). Robaxin, 150mg 4x daily, Zoloft 50mg per day. Ompemrazole/ranitidine 1, 2x per day. All from an MVA/2 slip & falls. ## Well, it is half the dose you were taking, so it probably won't give you as much pain control. Learn more Morphine details here. Is there a reason you were given for the dosage reduction? ## I have fibromyalgia n 8 herniated discs plus 2 crushed n 1r...
