Description
Rantac 150 Tablet is a medicine used to treat stomach ulcers, intestinal ulcers, heartburn, hyperacidity, indigestion, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It contains ranitidine as its active ingredient, which works by reducing the production of excess stomach acid. This helps relieve symptoms such as a burning sensation, acid reflux, and discomfort caused by excessive stomach acid.
Your doctor may prescribe Rantac 150 Tablet for a short period or for long-term use, depending on your medical condition. Always take it exactly as directed by your doctor. Do not skip doses or take more than the prescribed amount, as this can affect the medicine’s effectiveness in controlling acid levels.
If you have kidney problems or liver problems, inform your doctor before starting Rantac 150, as you may need a dose adjustment. Also, let your doctor know about any other medicines, supplements, or herbal remedies you are taking because ranitidine can interact with certain drugs.
Rantac 150 Tablet is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding when taken under medical supervision. Avoid drinking alcohol while using this medicine, as it can increase acid production and make your symptoms worse. Maintaining a healthy diet and avoiding spicy or oily foods can also help improve results.
Other tablets containing ranitidine include Zintac 150mg, Siacid 150mg, Hiramidin 150mg and Ranitrin. Always use these medicines only on a doctor’s advice to ensure safe and effective relief from acidity, ulcers, and heartburn.
