Stomach complaints can make you feel weaker and your physical condition deteriorates. This is because you can absorb less food and therefore less energy with stomach complaints. Frequent heartburn or stomach pain can therefore put a lot of pressure on your long-term health.

A drug that produces very good results for stomach complaints is Zantac, which contains the active ingredient ranitidine. Ranitidine is an H2 blocker that reduces the production of stomach acid.

Zantac can also be useful in a preventive way to avoid stomach problems, such as when using stomach-stressing medicines. Up to a dose of 75 mg, Zantac is available over the counter, while a higher dose requires a doctor’s prescription. Are there any side effects associated with Zantac?

Stomach pain and other stomach complaints

Stomach problems can disrupt your daily eating pattern and prevent you from absorbing enough energy. Heartburn, stomach pain, and the feeling that there is a “stone on your stomach” are just a few examples of typical stomach complaints that can reduce your appetite.Zantac for stomach complaints

Because you eat too little, you can also lose weight and feel weaker and less fit in general. Stomach complaints can therefore trigger a whole chain of negative health consequences. To avoid this, it is recommended not to let stomach complaints linger and to take the appropriate medicines. An example of this is the effective and well-known drug Zantac.

Zantac: ranitidine

Zantac contains the active ingredient ranitidine. This is an H2 blocker that causes the stomach to produce less acid. Zantac produces good results for a wide variety of stomach complaints and digestive problems, such as heartburn (also known colloquially as “heartburn” or “heartburn” ), stomach pain, belching, reflux, gas in the abdomen, gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers.

In addition, Zantac is sometimes also prescribed preventively, in particular, to protect the stomach against the negative effects of strong drugs. For example, when treatment with the gastric medicine cortisone is started, it may be appropriate to take Zantac at the same time to avoid stomach complaints.

Dose and use Zantac

operation

Zantac is a drug that usually needs to be taken over a long period of time, such as in case of chronic stomach problems or as protection against gastrointestinal drugs. Sometimes it may be necessary to take this medicine for months or even years. Zantac works for about eight hours and should have reduced the stomach complaints a lot after three days. In general, it is recommended to take Zantac in the evening so that it can have a positive effect on the stomach throughout the night.stomach complaints

Ingestion

In case of severe stomach problems, the dose can amount to two intakes per day, namely one in the morning at breakfast and one in the evening after dinner. If the stomach complaints mainly occur during meals, you should preferably take Zantac one hour before a meal.

In some cases, Zantac can also be given as an oral solution to babies who suffer from reflux or reflux of food. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use Zantac after consulting a doctor. In general, it is recommended to take a maximum of 300 mg Zantac per day, but in case of very serious complaints, the doctor may consider that this maximum may be exceeded.

Types of Zantac

Zantac is available in several forms: “regular” tablets, chewable tablets, effervescent tablets, oral solutions (syrup), and sticks. The choice of the kind of Zantac to take depends not only on the patient’s medical condition but also on his personal preference.

For example, some people with stomach problems have difficulty swallowing pills, in which case an effervescent tablet is more suitable than an ordinary tablet. If the patient is so weakened that oral intake is difficult or impossible, an injection of Zantac can be administered. This mainly happens when you are admitted to a hospital.Zantac for stomach complaints
